Subject: RE: 4.26.16 I'm Baaa-aaaack! Tuesday Training Ouch--Your pain tolerance must be amazing! I have really sensitive skin on the inside of my forearms, and I don't think I could ever sit still for a tattoo there.
Could really use an escape weekend but I guess it won't happen till summer.....
AM I tied with you today (almost--more like 4:50 ): 1:30 trainer ride with 36 hellish total minutes of FTP intervals. Quite a start to the day. I almost cracked up--each time I hit the "3 minutes at 100%" part, my cat (sitting on the desk, where he observes most workouts with a worried expression ) started making these weird whining noises. Maybe a show of sympathy, or concern that I might expire and be unable to feed him? It didn't make holding power any easier!
PM: 40 minutes of easy running.
I guess this is taper????? (HIM next Sunday ) There's nothing more to do that's really long, but still some hard stuff. Still so traumatized from last year's experience I have trouble visualizing arriving at the race healthy. Think I will go to bed soon--recovery time! |
