Simple Request - Comments

Please, if your reading this please leave a comment so I know that I'm not just typing to myself.

Thanks.

My Training (part 7) - Another beating....

I got in a very short ride on Saturday. That put me at 130mile (7hrs 55min) for the week. That is my highest weekly total in months! Now... let's see if I can get some consistancy going.

Yesterday (Monday) I did another ride with the paster and took another beating. We did the Wayne loop that totals 50 miles, 7 climbs and 3345 total feet of climbing. He did all the climbs in his big ring and still smashed me. I felt decent, I'm still way off my normal fitness.

Here are my stats. 51.1 miles (2hrs 59min). Avg 17.1mph, avg normalized power 274 watts, avg HR 143, 3345 ft of total climb. I'm usually very concerned with average speed but I'm trying to sort of ignore it through the this phase. It was a very enjoyable ride, conversation was good. Riding with someone is so much more enjoyable for me than solo rides.
