Base – Aerobic – 2006-10-31

Trainer. 1 hour. Easy.

Too much cross talk on the HRMs in the room, but I was having trouble
talking. Which really annoys me because I probably wasn’t going that
fast or hard, but I’m just not good at talking when I’m breathing. Blame
the swimming…

OoooOOOoooh. I’m sore. Not real bad, but I can definitely feel it.

Ride: Hawthorne to Sellwood then back along Springwater.

Time: 47:37
Distance: 11.3 miles
Avg HR: 137 bpm
Max HR: 162 bpm (It was really windy on the Springwater and I was going
too fast, suddenly)

Avg. speed: 14.2 mph
Max speed: 24 mph

In Zone 1: 44:37
Above Zone 1: 3:00

Cold day. Windy. Very autumnal. Spinning on the trainer tonight. We’ll
see how that goes, as I feel a little tired.

Oh, but bonus: I weigh 198 lbs. I’m under 200! Woo-hoo!

5 minute bike warmup.

3 x the following:

40 sit-ups
20 reverse sit-ups
40 russian twists
20 supermans

12 deadlifts (20 lbs)
15 reach up lunges
15 reach down lunges
15 lunges with 30 lbs.

The last time through doing the 40 situps? Not pretty. Legs were really
shaky afterward. Stretched really good, though. Surprisingly.

Group Ride. OK, mostly it was just Duncan and I.

Route: South on Springwater, then up the Cemetery in the fog. Then we were freaked about the fog, so we went through downtown to 30, and out a ways. Then we headed over to his house to look at his TT frame. And then I went home.

Time: 2:40?
Distance: 43 miles

Zone 1: All but 18 minutes
Average HR: 138 bpm

Average speed: 14.9 mph

The weather was crap.
