This was a good week. I got back into my pre-illness routine and got some good work in. Here’s what I did:
- Monday- Off
- Tuesday- I did Spinervals 2.0 Time Trial Special
- Wednesday- Spinervals Vol 18 Aero Base Builder III
- Thursday- I did a 45 minute interval at 95% of FTP
- Friday- Off
- Saturday- One hour outside at a moderate pace
- Sunday- A little over 2 hours outside at moderate pace
Other than some left over sinus drainage, I feel normal and back to full strength.
The Week Ahead
This coming Saturday (February 14th) I have my 1st race of the year, the Tundra Time Trial. It’s just under 10 miles in length and fairly flat. I’m hoping to be well rested and ready to go. Hopefully the weather is decent. To prepare, I will ride a little easier this week. I rode on Monday, will skip Tuesday due to a business dinner. I’ll ride Wednesday and Thursday, skip Friday and then get a good warm up on Saturday before the time trial. It will be a good test of my fitness and I’m looking forward to it. If I do OK and “enjoy the pain enough” I may sign up for a few other time trials throughout the rest of the year.
I’ll post my results and Powertap files after the race so you can see how well, or not, I did.
