AM: 8 miles, averaged 7:54. HR 145.
Getting warm, but it felt good to sweat. Going to be around 80 I think. Tonight's ride might be warm. It will be nice not to freeze on the way home though. I was going to skip it to get some work done, but it is my social time and the weather is perfect (maybe no wind this week).
PM: 3 hours. 55 miles @ 18.3 MPH. 207W. HR 140.
Thursday Night Dirt!
The weather was beautiful. 80, sunny, and light winds. Pace got hot quickly and a few of us got dropped. I think in future weeks I will try to stay toward the front more, but I always like to wait until things settle out/in, but it usually means getting dropped. I worked with a group for most of the ride, but took a lot of long pulls, pulling most of the part of the ride coming back south. I started to feel stronger during the second half and really wanted to push, but didn't want to bust the group up. We had a solid rhythm going through the Proving Grounds and beyond.
Loop Data: 30.7 miles in 1:29:35. 20.5 MPH. 246 Watts (270 Normalized). HR 154.
