I'm doing a mini tri on Saturday morning. 45 min spin class + 45 min lap swim + 45 min power walk/run.
Here's my question- should I take the day off of exercise tomorrow (Friday) to rest up? Should I eat anything special for dinner tomorrow night? What should I eat Sat morning before the tri?

I am training for my first tri next month so keep that in mind. You need rest days built into your training. I would eat what you would normally eat for dinner the night before as for breakfast I would eat some oatmeal or a bagel w/some peanut butter on it before starting, leave enough time to digest whatever food you decide on. I would also take some snacks to eat along the way. I like the sport beans and also that shot blocks. These are small and easy to carry and eat. Let us know how it goes. And have fun0

My suggestion would be to do a light workout the day before, but I'm still learning and I've never done anything like that. Sounds fun!!! Good luck! :happy:0

I'm no expert but maybe do something light on the Friday like Yoga or go for a nice walk if the weather is good.
As for food I would keep it simple the day before and avoid anything processed and high in salt.
Good luck. Let us know how it goes :happy:0
