ALL ABOARD!! THE PAIN TRAIN
First off, have to thank James for the name!
What a solid day today of training. Headed to Guelph to join the PTC group in a ride. The workout was 35km warm up 20km Tempo, then 15km threshold! We had an issue with keys (Hewdog) so we headed to Waterdown. The warm up was solid and we all expected an out and back. Steve had the route planned...so we thought! The 20km Tempo was solid, James has the wattage but I believe we were around 250-270 watts. Then the pain started! My goal was to lay it out there and see if I can hurt anyone! I was trying to stick around 310 watts + I was a ball of mess after that ride and laid the hurt into a couple of the guys! The group of guys were amazing to ride with. The consistency was great and we all worked together and kept each other motivated! As James put it we are the Magnificent 7! The Group consisted of Conor (Youngblood) Hammond, James (Ride the Bone Loaring), Hewdog (I lost my GPS) Hewick, Mike (Bionic Man) Hayes, Adrian (I have a P3) Del Monte, Dave (I train with Kenyans) Sharratt and Tyler (Joanna and I ride the same bike) Lord..haha
Off the bike the boys ran a 40 min run and I had to shut it down after 20 min.....had a golf game...I shot an 85 today! Solid day of training!
Muskoka is coming fast and ready to race!
Also I tried to get Annika out on the ride but she wanted nothing to do with it!

I do have all the data. I averaged 577 watts (including zeros non-normalized) during the 15k threshold. Since you weigh 5 pounds more then me, and your collective CdA is roughly the same as mine, I estimate your P=582. Sound about right?
That is insane! We are well oiled machines!
You guys and WATTS. You need to just go out and ride like mike and I. We ride on feel. I do have my own GPS/WATTS though. His name is Steve. He told me eveyrthing I needed to know:)
Thanks Steve.
I can't wait to see you guys race LC in Muskoka this weekend.
Nerds.....While you were doing that I (Shannon "I forget what my husband looks like" Lord) was drinking Margaritas!
That's my girl!!haha
