5 x 4' Muscle Tension Intervals 

Messed around with my cadence and power, but most intervals were around 55-57 RPM and when I let the power drop just a touch, (from 280-285 down to 270-275) my form felt better, and I stayed a bit more relaxed.

AM: 120' on the trainer. 208W. HR 126.

I had the option to run 60-90', but I checked out the tempo loop and it was pretty icy and snow-covered. I didn't feel like running on the treadmill, so once again I didn't run and rode, which felt fine. Just kind of where I am at when it gets cold and snowy I guess. By February I will be ripping my hair out I am sure, but for now all good.
