Triathlon Race Week Brick Simulation
Triathlon race week brick simulation is one short dress-rehearsal bike-run seven to fourteen days out—race fueling, transition, and first-mile pace cap without full-distance taper fatigue.
Triathlon race week brick simulation is a short dress-rehearsal bike-to-run seven to fourteen days before an A race—often forty-five to seventy-five minutes bike at aerobic race fueling plus ten to twenty minutes run at capped first-mile pace with transition practice, nutrition, and kit exactly as race morning. Not a fitness builder; a confidence and gut check.
Skip full-distance bricks in taper—they add fatigue without new adaptation. One simulation beats zero or two heavy ones.
Weather and travel may shift timing earlier.
