I just leave that here as info/warning:
Keep up the good work. Cycling is a sport for the lang haul. Zwift is fun and I’m happy it keeps motivating you. I would not compare myself with anyone on Zwift though. Too many Elito Muins and worse trainers out there… combine that with (knowingly or unknowingly) wrong calibrations and well, let’s say optimistic weight estimations. By default if you play fair you arrive with a spoon at a gunfight. So have fun on the platform, race, but don’t worry about race categories or results…
P.S.: I stopped participating in any FB / reddit discussion about FTP gains on Zwift. Too many people with +100% FTP gain in 2-3 month that don’t want a friendly reality check that a) either it might be worth checking their hardware to get accurate result and b) they shouldn’t expect the same FTP increase rate as with the beginner gains.
