With the A races out of the way, we’ll be looking at the local races like Cleves and Blue Streak to finish out the season. Started making some plans for future training for more of the 5k and 10k time trials with my coach. Might even add some to the local time trial schedule if […]

Pretty uninspired ride at 22:43, 27.1 mph. Didn’t have that drive in the legs or my mind to ride hard tonight. Think I left it all in Cleveland last week.
Rode the 5k today in 6:27 or 28.9 mph for another silver medal. Missed first by four seconds. Its a short ride but had HR near max the entire time. have to say it really hurt. Not sure I’d have the other four seconds in me. I do really like these short all out events.
Took the silver in the 10k time trial with a 13:36 or 28.23 mph avg. First was about 15 seconds faster. Thats pretty big so I don’t feel like I could have beat that anyway. Had an avg of 28.4 at the turn and lost almost a mile per hour. had to get the power

Did an easy 40 miles up East Shore Drive then M37 to the lighthouse at Old Mission and then straight back the rolling M37 to Traverse. Ended up with 502 miles since arriving last Thursday afternoon. Truly could have done 100 every day and enjoyed it. Never did repeat a ride and only rode a

Rode 2:15 today, about 44 miles, with 40 minutes at 286 watts, HR around 135-140, for some tempo. Not as strong as last Thursday when I was at 300 for 46 minutes but I didn’t have 460 miles in my legs like I do now. Last year on this trip I rode 479 miles. Should
Rode my third century since last Thursday here in Michigan for a total of 416 miles in about 5 days. Todays route started with the Leelanau Trail from Traverse to Suttons Bay then to Northport, Glen Arbor, Mapleton, Cedar and back. Not as heavy on the hills but actually held a better average power at
