just did my 2nd fat bike race of January and was a disaster was 3rd last
about hour 30mins slower then last year
high hrt at start and no power for me. just cruise whole race
barely able to keep up to anyone
been like this since june
thought s? suggestions?
"High hrt at start"?? Didn't even try during the race, just cruised? Didn't have high HR after the start? That would be me if I'd taken way too much time off and was having problems with depression. Doesn't sound like OTS, rather a personal problem.
OTOH, maybe bike racing just isn't for you right now. Maybe take a year and just fool around on the bike and get your head together one way or the other.
On the third hand, if every time you came to a hill you gave it everything you had and your HR just wouldn't come up, then that would be OTS, but since HR was high at the start, probably didn't happen. Did it?
