AcesFull - 2010-05-11 4:15 PM PhoenixTX - 2010-05-11 3:12 PM Thinking about it i'll just be in Z4-Z5 the majority of the time. Not a good idea. I mean, if you want to make it a "super sprint," then go straight to Z4, but I find that my partner prefers a steady Z2 effort that allows for a more "iron-distance" effort. Not to say that a bit of Z4-Z5 effort isn't appreciated from time to time, especially as the finish line approaches. ^^^^This is the correct answer. Trust me she will appreciate it.
It’s been my experience that for the best results one needs the ability to randomly vary the speeds through the entire range of zones over the course of several hours and only venturing into Z4 when one’s partner begs.
Of course, if you’re going solo or paying for the company, knock yourself out and go for that Z4 experience and save yourself some time and money.
