Well Wednesday was a much needed rest day after the hard ride Tuesday. Last night, Thursday night, Nick and I road out in Marlborough, (our short route - 11.4 miles at 13.3 MPH). It was a relaxed ride, and took the strategy not to stand except on crests, and it worked for me. Did not get nearly as winded, and was able to climb much more consistently with better pace. I did raise my saddle a bit, which put me in better position for the hills, and enabled me to use more of my pedal stroke. The post is set just before the second word, and just after CARBON. My MaxExHr was only about 150, and my avg was about 126 or so, much better!
Today I will go to the gym and do some ab work and lift a bit as it is raining. Tomorrow is a hard day, starting with spin class, rain again. I am then going to repack my hubs, true my wheels, and other maintenance tasks.
Ate Pizza at Nick's last night, two slices of tomato basil garlic pizza. There was not suppose to be any cheese, but there was...Yummm
