Anyway's, this weeks workout is similar to last weeks, but I will actually do it (I only missed one day last week). Speed workouts are not very exciting.

Week Of 12/8: Base 1 Continues
Oh boy is it hard to get back on a trainer. Nothing like staring at a wall when your use to mother nature. I did my final night ride on Wednesday during a snowstorm and in 6 inches of snow. It was great, but it clear that riding is not much of an option anymore. My bike looked like an ice cube by the time I got home.

Gupster,
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your blog. I race 40-49 Sport and follow a pretty similar Friel type plan like you. My question is that it does not seem like you do any long (i.e. 3 hour + ) endurance rides in your Base periods. I do one 3 hour ride a week during base (sucks on the trainer!) but have no idea if it is really beneficial or not. Your thoughts?
Thanks for the feedback. I use Base 1 more as a warm-up to getting back on the bike. I worry I may burn-out jumping into such long interval rides this early. They DEFINITLY provide a benefit even though it doesn't always feel like it. I'll start to increase my hours over Base 2 and 3.
