Best Mileage Week Ever

April 25, 2010,

Rain returned after several really nice days here. It gave me a chance to a Spinerval workout inside. I decided to work the Spinerval but not push the big gears to the point I was doing previously because I did not want to tighten my back. Since I will not be racing the event,I just wanted to get my heart rate elevated as much as possible without putting strain on my back. Believe I did it OK. Rain is forecast for the next several days so I will spin indoors. On Wednesday I am taking my bike in to be tuned and get new tires. The end of the week is supposed to be real nice as the 70 degree weather is coming.

It has been a good April. I am finishing the month up with a very positive attitude. Obviously I will have my best mileage month ever and I am starting to do several long rides a week now. This week a did 3 rides of 75 or more. In May I will start to go over 100 miles a couple of times each week. I really am at a loss of how much mileage I should do before the event. I believe the key for me is just to ride and put in the mileage. We will see how it works out.

Crunches: 200
Push Ups: 75

Total Distance: 45 miles
Total Time: 3 hours

Total Weekly Distance: 384 miles
Total Weekly Time: 26 hours
