I did 9.059 miles today. My actual ride time was 57:29 although I was out an hour and twenty minutes. My Ave HR was 105 and my pace was 9.5. I did hit 18.2 mph but a steady 6 mph wind cut that down pretty fast. It was 82 degrees and humidity was 53%. I wanted to stay out longer but I only took one bottle of gator aid and my inner voice said not to proceed without enough of liquid. So I called it a day. I turned out 137.91 Watts and my VO2 Max was 53. The VO2 Max is important to me because I have heart failure and my lungs fill with fluid. Cycling helps me expel a lot of it. But it felt good.
