Busy ten days. Rode a couple of hundred miles in Norther MI, all endurance. Came back and did a couple of days in Cincinnati with some light intervals on Monday the 17th (not shown, all around 300-320). Then went to TN where I rode on Wednesday afternoon, hiked 15 on Thursday (3900′ down and then back up), drove home on Friday, rode about 40 in the afternoon and then dod 100 today with an hour on a local road doing 30-40sec on, 10-20 sec off, at 440w avg. So, about 400 miles in ten days. Taking some time off next week. Long overdue.

Michigan Senior 10k and 5k

Peter Wimberg — Sat, 15 Aug 2026 12:43:48 +0000

These went well. Just a few seconds off the last time I rode the 5k here in 2024 and I was actually 12 seconds faster on the 10k. Overall power was good at 320 and 350. Had. good downaward trend on the 10k with the energey expenditure. The 5k on that course is a little harder to do given the turns where power drops off.

OSO 5k and 10k Time trials

Peter Wimberg — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 23:57:44 +0000

Not sure that I could ride the 5k much better. I averaged a little over 360 watts and beat my strava record. The 10k was about average. I think I hesitate to really crush the power at the distance. need to work on that. 6:35 and 13:50 for the times.

Peter Wimberg — Fri, 24 Jul 2026 17:04:46 +0000

Spent the week of the 13th riding in Michigan, about 50 miles per day. Would have done more but the Canadian wildfire smoke was an issue the last few days.

On Sunday the 19th, I did some 30 and 40 second efforts with 10-15 seconds between at about 400w each. Back in TN Wed-Fri the week of the 20th. Did 5×3:00, 1×5:00 and 1×4:00 in Pittman Center. Power was 360w (avg on all), 280 and 330w respectively. Today I did the Grassy Branch climb 3x at 360w, around 6:45 on each.

5 x around Armleder Segment

Peter Wimberg — Mon, 06 Jul 2026 15:14:40 +0000

Rode about 8 minutes for a warmup and then did the 5 laps at 321w, 23:29. Felt pretty good and that pace over that time shows a nice steady depletion of the energy reserves.
