same workout as the other day. race winning interval, but on a big boy gear. I won, but in doge's defense I won mo betterer.

Another Easy ride which still kills the legs cus I'm out of shape.

Previewed the new 'Ontario' crit course, which is 12 miles from my house. I like it, 1 slight hill to make it harder for the linebackers and give the skinnier guys a slight tactical advantage. October 15 ferret would have a good showing on this course....ah the good ole days....

Doge

Are you going next week? It is not on our team schedule but may go out to test the equipment. Is the finish on an uphill or downhill stretch?

furiousferret

The finish is on a downhill. Just after turn 2 is the uphill.

I'll probably race, and get crushed but it'll be a $30 donation and a good training session. My wife will be photographing the event. I just got her a professional SLR for XMas and she plans to run a sports photography site.

I really overdid it on New Year's Eve, and the day after I was hurting in a way I haven't in probably 20 years. I'm never doing that again.

Still feeling off today. Did 2x20s and they were so hard, way harder than the 3x20s I did on Wednesday. I'm officially too old to party.

4:15 today outside, z2. definitely feeling the efforts i put in earlier this week.

breezy, but all in all 35F and sunny is a pretty damn nice day this time of year.

have you dremeled the dropouts on the new bike yet?

i find that doing an easy spin when hungover helps to get rid of the "ugh" feeling. granted, i didn't do that yesterday and probably should have.

globecanvas

Thanks! Filed under "advice I never plan to need"

mike868y

lol yeah. the night before the second longsjo race i went out and definitely had a few too many. went for an easy spin the morning before the race and felt surprisingly alright in the race.

Doge

Didn't need to, Specialized did the changes I recommended.

grolby

You forgot to mention the best part of your ride today.

Made up for a sort of monobuttocked effort yesterday (1:15 or so outside punctuated by brunch, beer and a latte, another hour inside) with 3:38 of Z2ish action today. Rode most of it with a teammate and couple other local bike folks. Saw Mikey headed the other direction at one point.

mike868y

hah, didn't realize you were in that group. recognized preston's voice, but not yours. thought about flipping it to say hi but then i didn't.

current week: 760tss, 14.5 hours, 267 miles, 16.5k climbed and a race tomorrow for which I will be thoroughly trashed. @mattm skipped out on today's race ride in which I would fall too far back and contest for best of the rest at the sprints.

hubcyclist

90mins with 5x10min efforts between 96-99% i'm actually riding with cadence in the low 80's, as it seems I have a lot easier time with these efforts at lower cadence for some reason

TheKillerPenguin

On the trainer? I find my optimum cadence is lower indoors, 80ish rpms like you're saying.

Ygduf

what I do in my bedroom has no bearing here.

canuckbelle

Another 3hrs (170w) of my 15hrs this week. Managed not to cry...it was hard. Tomorrow will be worse.

Doge

Yet

grolby

No Preston in that group!

mike868y

lmfao, oops.

mattm

Indeed, I skipped out today but will be fresh for tomorrow! #taperforeverything

hubcyclist

Yep, indoors, I actually got the idea when I was trying to figure out why high 80's low 90s were seemingly making me fatigue more quickly

gsteinb

750 tss on 12 hours

hack

4x10 @ 95% on the trainer last night. Tired today.

burger0014

Biggest week ever for me. 13 hours, 890TSS. Expecting to be sore tomorrow
