AT had faith I could do it, and it was dead right.
I’d have almost marked it Moderate but for the final 15min trying to bring my Power Average up. I ended with my Power exactly meeting the Target, but there was an app crash at about 35min into the interval which I suspect dropped the average a smidge (though it can’t have been massive), and I re-calibrated five minutes after that to be safe.
Steamboat +2 was in my calendar and to have something to look at I took it to a virtual Germany (Lol now the Rapha 500 includes virtual rides I thought I’d take it to the course where I’d rack up most mileage or is that kilometreage). You might be able to see a power drop on one of the blocks. Lol, that is when I went for an inride sprint forgetting I was in ERG, spinning out, slowing for a second and then having to grind my way out
First workout of structured training goaling for a decent performances in Wisconsin Cycling Association Crits, TOAD, and CX. Even though I previous had my endurance level nearly to 7 that was with my old ramp test result. So TR categorized the WOTD as a stretch ride. I scoffed at that, knowing I’ve done this before but I still took it seriously. I prepared carbohydrate beverages and cut up and pitted five dates. I got my kit ready and went to bed.
I woke up and did my routine. Kissed my wife bye on her way out the door and procrastinated. Instead of getting to it dark and early I got at it dark and not so early. However, threw over I did and spun this one out. The two hour set list I made for this WOTD was one maybe two songs short of two hours.
Last ride of 2021, Zwift C crit race, got a 7th place, managed to keep with pack to the end. x76 (2021)PRs with a 400w 2 min effort at end before a damp squid sprint! Hard when on a MTB with no gear range and having to rely on the TR resistance setting
