I want to start this program, but I am confused by the nomenclature. Page 76 Tuesday - "1 hour in Zone 2 with 10 minutes Tempo on flat terrain." Does any one know whether this means a 1 hour ride - or - a 1 hour and 10 minute ride?? The "with" gets me. Does "with" mean "and" or does "with" mean that the 10 minutes is included in the 1 hour. Does anyone really know? Thanks for any help.

i'm pretty sure it means with as in _included_. as you get better an intermediate, you spend time training harder, not longer. at least for the 7 week program.
