Summary

Q&A #28 - Time management, training on limited time, mastering workout logistics and transitions, training frequency vs. workout duration and training to distance or to time?   How should you structure training for a sprint triathlon when you can only train 4 days per week? Is it more important to have a higher training frequency (more workouts) or longer individual workouts if the total time/duration is the same, and why?
