Few laps of Orion Oaks and then out on the dirt roads. Proper November weather, but almost no wind. Likely one of the last rides outside for a while, but we will see. They were trying to make some snow on Pine Knob, which was kind of funny as it was just barely visible.

3 x 12 Over/Unders

3 (2' @ 95%/2' @ 105% x 3). Tough workout. Harder than I should have attempted, but I did well to hang as long as I did.

PT session #26.

Off. 

36 days on. Megan had meetings and I wasn't sure how the boys would nap. So I took a short nap before class. We got some snow. Not much.

Mountain 8 route in Watopia on Zwift. Very hilly. Stalled out a few times, but I think the second time up the Epic KOM I was in the big "ring." Harder than I should have gone. I was quite tired this week, even with a sensible bed time and sneaking in some naps.

More snow. I didn't feel like running in the wet and slush. Just don't feel like running in that crap these days. I can deal with the cold if it is dry.

Cold. A little slippery in places, but not terrible. Made up a pair of screw shoes for the first time in a few years at night. Running is feeling good. Nice increase every week. Able to slow down and run the appropriate effort.

PM: 75' on the trainer. 203W. HR 133. 

Finished watching Midnight Mass.
