Would You Believe 6 3/4 Hours -- Indoors

March 27, 2010,

It is even hard for me to believe what I did today. But today was the longest indoor ride I have ever had. Wanted to go long and it was to cold outside for a long ride. So I did a 5 1/2 hour Spinerval. Warmed up before and rode for another hour after at a good speed. Worked really hard during the Spinerval with my heart rate well into zone four for over almost 2 hours. Happened to be a fun ride. Went thru 5 shirts, 6 bottles of water, two energy drinks and 6 gel packets. After I had a replacement drink and banana. After showering I had lunch that included rice, bagel and cream cheese, apple sauce. I assume I will be starving in a few hours. Will do an easy ride tomorrow as I believe it is important to ride again after an intense workout. I will not ride as hard as I did today during the event. So it gives me a lot of confidence that I was able to complete today's ride feeling good.
