Analyzing Ted Kings 1,298 TSS ride

Thanks goodness TrainerRoad, in some cases, let’s you hack around & look at other rider’s history/data/power profile. It’s a source of never ending entertainment. :smiley:

Check out Ted King’s 1300 TSS ride. TR red-flagged him for three days solid after he completed this ~500 mile ride. Here is the ride on Strava:

Here is Ted’s calendar afterwards. I’m not sure if TR double counted the training stress? But, in any event, I feel reasonably confident in saying that, no matter what you do, TR won’t red flag you for more than three days.

BTW, I went back to my biggest TSS ride…it was back when I won the TT nat champs. That was a smidge over 500 miles & a little over 700 tss. I was totally destroyed after. Still haven’t recovered.

And NP for that ride was about 80 watts less than what Ted did. Except that I was TRYING REAL HARD. :laughing: :zany_face:

It’s 4 rides.

Moving time: 30:55:57. Elapsed time 75:24:56. Four big rides with three long recoveries, recorded as one activity.

Still impressive.
