Spinning this morning… I ,not surprsisingly, found it very tough. My heart rate was low and my perceived exertion was high. Still, I won't become obsessed with numbers in January – I'll just do the hours and worry about the numbers as the season approaches. I plan on doing one more hard week and then I can ake a bit of a rest. Althouh I'm most certainly fatigued from two relatively tough weeks of training, I'm begining to feel fit again.
I intended on doing 2:30 pretty easy and steady but ended up getting carried away. Since I haven't been on a bike for four weeks I expected to feel really bad – when I realised that this was not the case, I hit it pretty hard.
I did the first 1:15 steady, then 4x4min mod-hard, 3min easy, then 16 min mod hard, mins rest. 22 min mod-hard 1 min rest then 4 mins building to max. I decided to skip the planned run!
