This weekend was just hard. I don't do rain, so it was into the garage yet again. Saturday was pretty simple -- 45min@95%, 5 minutes easy, 30min@92%, 5 minutes easy, and then 20min at 90% to bring it in. Cool down, and 2000kj in the can in two hours.
I was pretty tired today, but surprised myself with a year-best for 60min -- 298w. 50 minutes of that hour was 300w, so I'm getting closer to clearing 300w for an hour in a workout. I'd like to think that would be the doorstep to decent fitness for the spring.I've blabbed about it before, and I'll blather it again -- I'm convinced that for most of us schleps, a setady winter diet of as much 90-95% as you can handle is the best way to build Base and raise FTP. It is a bit of a grind, though.
Looking at the weather, it looks like rain again next weekend. There's been a disturbing trend of sunny 60 degree days during the week, and then 50 degrees and pissing rain on the weekend. Not fair, mother nature. Not fair.
Right now, ugh. Just ugh. Glad tomorrow is a day off.
