Soft 2×20’s

I’m still recovering from the race so today I just an easier set of 2×20’s. Legs felt good but could tell my body is a

2×20’s

Just the usual 2×20 workout. Power was decent, but not spectacular.

LRC Ride and Wimpy VO2’s

I was hoping that after resting most of this week I’d be raring to go today. The weather was shaping up to be nice and

Snow and 2×20’s

With temperatures reaching the mid-40’s to 50’s lately, the snow we received today was somewhat unexpected. Some really dark clouds rolled into Boise at around

Outside 2×20’s

With more daylight after work due to Daylight Saving Time, it’s easier to get outside for my weekday workouts. So today I headed west for

Hard Team Ride

I knew the weather was supposed to be good so I planned my last few workouts so I could hit it hard today. I invited

Two-a-Day

I woke up early enough today to jump on the rollers before going to work. I thought it was a great idea so I’d have

Emmett Rd – Old Freezeout Loop

It looked beautiful outside today with crystal blue skies and bright sunshine. But looks can be deceiving; it only got up to 45°F. Fortunately it

Sprints

I rode outside and did sprints today. There was a kicking tailwind on the way out and it’s always fun to sprint with a tailwind!

LT with Cadence Change-up

I felt better today once I started riding than I did yesterday. It helps that I rode during lunch–I always seem to have more energy

Wimpy 2×15’s

By the time I got on the bike today I was already dragging so I wasn’t planning on doing anything hard. For the first few

Spring Is in the Air

This was the first morning of the year I could hear birds singing outside. It was like they knew spring was in the air…and they

Near Record-Breaking Outdoor Ride

It was cold and foggy this morning so I thought I’d be relegated to the rollers again. So I went to Yoga first thing and

1×40 LT

Back indoors doing the usual Lactate Threshold (LT) work. Today I did a 1×40 minute LT interval. I didn’t feel the need to break it

First Outdoor Ride of 2008

Since it’s President’s Day I knew things would be quiet around work, so I had already decided to work from home. It worked out well

Another Solid 2×20

Another solid set of 2x20s, but this time I faded on the second one. But I think it was more of a lack of focus

1×30

Just an hour long rollers ride with a 1×30 minute LT interval. Nothing special.

Two Good Workouts in a Row

Another good workout today. I did 2x20s. I wasn’t sure I’d have it in my legs today but I guess yesterday’s workouts blew them out

Mixing it Up

Did a 30-minute LT and then some L6 efforts. Power was pretty good for as little as I’ve been training. This was my best 4x30sec

Tech-Support Cutting into Training

After a good workout on Monday, the rest of the work-week lacked any quality workouts. Instead I was in front of a computer most of
