PM: 3 hours 1'. 54.9 miles @ 18.2 MPH. 208W. HR 141.
4x12' Threshold
Air quality was decent but it was very humid. My battery died about 5 miles out, so I turned around and changed it. That gave me a bit more warmup time, which was fine. Got in a soaking downpour that I thought I might miss, but no luck. It cleared out eventually. Felt pretty strong, like I could have pushed 295-300 if I was fully on the edge, but I kept these controlled but hard.
279 @ 159 BPM, 287 @ 160 BPM, 288 @ 162 BPM, 287/288 @ 161 BPM
LLaped the final interval a bit too early, thought I might just call it there, but then went for the additional 2+ minutes. Only about 13 seconds of recovery, Bad math!
I used several different tire pressure calculators and I have been running my tires way too low. I have been running my 45s at 17/16 and they should be about 29/27. They rolled fast especially on pavement but were a little harsh on the rougher gravel portions.
Bike fitness has started to improve a good deal finally.
