The classic FT workout

After a few months of building up the time, and reducing the reps, I've finally got to what most people think of when you talk about an FT workout, the classic 2x20 minutes. It's an odd experience, much more of a mental exercise than the shorter intervals. At about three minutes, I was considering cutting the intervals short because I'd never finish. At ten minutes, I could go forever. At fifteen minutes, I needed complete focus to get to the end.

And then I had to do the second interval.

All in all, a great workout. I hit my wattage targets, and will bump it up by 10 watts next week. The transition run afterwards went nicely. I would have expected to be tighter, but I was running pretty smooth. So, we'll call this one a win.
