Let’s see…

On Monday, I had to decide…do I ride the trainer…again…or do I freeze outside? I chose the latter and hit the lake for a tempo ride.  Lots of layers, but mentally it helped.  Thankfully, the next FEW days (note emphasis on few) were warmer.

I did my first 2×20 workout last night in the TT position.  I now see why my training plan had me at only 90% threshold, rather than 100%.  My legs were fried, and had to modify the workout.  Different muscle groups and harder breathing. I’m glad to start going hard in this new aero position now that TTing season is almost here.

And, finally today…the weather just plain sucked.  I was pedaling home into a snow/sleet with a strong headwind.  Had it been January, I wouldn’t have cared.  We even had a thundersnow.  Aren’t we supposed to have T-storms right now? As the WGN Weather Blog stated, “It’ll get warm.  Honest.”  I hope they’re right.
