back in the saddle

Back in the saddle after two days off.  Trying to get back into the rhythm of things.  Was a little concerned about this being too hard, but that was hardly the case.  I was able to hit all my power targets, despite not hitting all the cadence recommendations.

Back on the trainer.  Fourth time using the Sufferfest App.  I still like the TrainerRoad/Sufferfest combo.  Not sure which I’ll stick with.  Anyway, workout was good, thought it was a bit easy until the last “climb” trying to maintain the recommended cadence was a bit tough, but made it through.

cramps

this is what i get for not stretching properly… also maybe because i’m dehydrated and not drinking enough water. started getting cramps in both calves not even halfway through the workout

Sufferfest Downward Spiral (pre 5/15)

Well that sucked…. barely hung on for 34 minutes out of the hour. I have a long way to go to get back where I was at the beginning of the year.

Well… supposed to be. It turned tout the first half of the ride was mostly me and Mikael. After the break at the spoon, it was me, Mikael and 2 others from AG. I promptly got dropped at the first hill. I tried to catch up but later found out that Mikael and one of the others who is a triathlete were hammering at over 25mph. I managed to have a 17.5mph average for 9W. The drop off in Strava is due to the stop and go traffic in Fort Lee.

Slowly getting back.

I actually think this is really cool


Google+

Just added the Google+ plugin to my blog. Maybe I’ll add my Google+ stream at some point.

Anyway, I should be sleeping now instead of thinking about my blog.

Should I get up early and get a quick ride before heading to Philly or should I catch an extra hour of sleep?
