That's more like it

Turns out, if your tire isn't rubbing, or you're not applying a brake, you'll go faster. And it will be easier, too. Add in that I'm finally getting close to full health, and the workouts can start looking like they're supposed to.

Just a tempo session on the bike tonight, and I held 92-95% of FTP for 30 minutes. Just to compare to when I did this workout last week, I was 10-15w higher, at a heart rate 8-10 bpm lower. More strength, less effort? That's a good thing, right?

Followed with a quick 2 mile transition run, and once again my HR stayed about where it was supposed to. The sickness is leaving the body, and I'll be back at full force soon.

Bike: 65 minutes, w/30 min @ 250-260w
Run: 2 miles @ 7.2 mph
