Elite  4583   |  Subject: 2.25.17 Super Dee Duper Saturday!Good morning BT! Had to keep my usual hour as hubby and I are traveling 120 miles west to watch our younger daughter play volleyball. 4:30am: 2:00:00 on the bike trainer...it was a tough kind of grind 'em out longer intervals--hard but manageable. Karen...I was starting to get worried! Sorry to hear you're battling all sorts of illness. I have a friend going through something similar--she's been down for about two weeks--it just hangs on and on. I sure hope you're able to kick it soon and get back to training like you do! Robert...that sounded like one heck of a workout on the bike! Sheesh! Have a great day all!

233  Ventura, California | Subject: RE: 2.25.17 Super Dee Duper Saturday! Tore the bike off the trainer and got outside. Seemed nice when I started out but then the cold winds started blowing over the Tehachapi mountains and into the Mojave basin. Seemed to be a little fatigued in the legs from yesterdays session. But added in some extra mile anyways to try and simulate what I might encounter in St George. 28 miles, 1:40:25, 17mph avg, 134w avg. My bike fit is off since I upgraded to the short 155mm cranks. My seat post wont go high enough without going past the limit marker, had to move seat further back to try and get a less then proper knee angle. So I have to order a longer seat post which for a odd ball sized 88 Peugeot is abit of a treasure hunt. (26.2mm) C/Ya

Master 8248  Eugene, Oregon Bronze member | Subject: RE: 2.25.17 Super Dee Duper Saturday! Sigh--You are where I should be on the bike. I had gotten up to about 1:45 of harder riding and a nearly 4 hour ride at camp. Now I think I will have to start all over. Made it through some easy workouts here. Clearly getting better, but I am not going to be able to get back to normal training instantaneously--both asthma issues and lost fitness. Asthma really complicates any type of cold/flu virus--being sick and coughing vastly ups the hypersensitivity that is at the root of it, so it just goes on and on and requires all sorts of meds to control it. Normally I'll only have issues (and use a rescue inhaler) if the pollution is really high (field burning is my nemesis), or I'm exposed to certain kinds of mold or pollen for a long time or when training at high intensity. But if I'm sick, EVERYTHING sets me off. Ugh. AM: 40-minute easy trainer ride Noonish: 1600m (30 minutes) of easy swimming--mix of free, stroke, pull, and kick About to head out and attempt an easy run. Not sure how it will go--outside is more problematic. |

Expert 1074 Tyrone, Georgia | Subject: RE: 2.25.17 Super Dee Duper Saturday! Today was a nice easy Z2 ride on the trainer for an hour followed up with a nice Z2 80 minute run. Got my new Flo's suited up with tubes and cassette change over. Hoping to give them a spin tomorrow outside if the weather holds out. Looking forward to getting to the pool tomorrow! |
