Best Week Yet

January 9 & 10, 2010,

I feel really good. I believe I just finished the best week of training yet. Yesterday, I did core strength exercises in the morning. I did not do my quad lifts because my quads were getting heavy and I wanted to give them a rest from lifting. In the afternoon I got on the bike to do a real easy ride since the day before I had that very hard Spinerval workout. I rode easy for 4 hours and felt good.

This morning I got up very early since my grandson is staying with us. I wanted to see how it would be biking so soon after finishing around 8 last night. No problem. Did a hard Spinerval for 1 3/4 hours. I really feel I am getting stronger.

This week I did 4 hard Spinerval workouts at varying lengths. One real long ride and two shorter rides. I also now have ridden for 18 straight days without a day off. I have two more weeks before I do 100 mile ride in Florida. I will continue to ride and do an hour to two hours for easy days.

Total Distance for January 9: 65 miles
Total Time for January 9: 4 hours and 5 minutes

Total Distance for today: 40 miles
Total Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes

Total Distance for the week: 275 miles
Total Time for the week: 17 3/4 hours
