A ride

Up at 5:00 AM. Abs and pushups, a confrontation with Buddy and Asbury to jump start the heart (Buddy posts another win), then on to the trainer.

2o minutes of one-legged drills today followed by a very different interval--5 minutes of zone 3 at 60 plus RPM followed by 2 minutes of zone 4 at 90 RPM. Let me tell you, getting your legs to rotate fast after tiring them in a high gear is a bit of a struggle. Certainly more than I expected. I knocked on the door of zone 4 but I could not quite wedge my way in.

Tonight, swimming with the Masters. Plenty of zone 4 and zone 5 action guaranteed.
