Training

[Jwhite316]

I've found cycling to be really helpful.  I try to put in 50-70 miles a week and also go to the gym 2-3 times a week.  I've never really felt tired after a race even a GT.  Personally I really enjoy cycling, its hard but also sort of relaxing in a weird way. But you definatley shouldn't be dead tired after getting off the bike, whatever excercising you find you enjoy I think you should try it.

Me I cut grass everyday 8-10 hrs,with a 22inch push it yourself mower.In my area I do with another person 25-32 yards a day.Overall I walk about 8-10 mi everyday for work.

8-10 hrs. a day with a push mower cannot be easily duplicated!

Train like you are going to going to race bicycles, or run sprints. Basketball is a decent cardio workout and it helps with hand/eye co-ordination too.

i wish i had the will to do crossfit.. i get to the gym about 1 time a week now if lucky to do some strength stuff, just weight machines, no serious free weights.

I only do crossfit twice a week and it's been enough so that I have the endurance to run a race weekend, and not be all sore and useless the following days. Most crossfit gyms are run in a class format and you have other people there to help motivate you. Not advertising crossfit here, but it has worked for me.

I can vouch for Mark's training.  I watched him saunter around VIR in full leathers laughing and smiling, while most of us mere mortals were stripping down, pounding water and hiding in the shade.  I don't think I even saw a bead of sweat on his forehead after doing the Solo team challenge followed by the GTL...

Impressive!

The mowers I use and one house I cut the grass.

I ride my unicycle at least 17-18 miles a day

Aggressively riding a stand-up style Jet-Ski is an immense workout that not only strength trains your entire body, but also works cardio pretty hard. I ride mine on a busy local river every weekend, I think many people truly underestimate just how much exercise you get on them, especially if your constantly riding and jumping surf, wakes, or waves.

If you don't like cycling, your not doing it right.
