Road Ride

I threw in a road ride today... trying to mix things up a bit. I'm noticing that the 'ol legs don't have as much endurance as they did last season. Even though I can crank up the hills on my SS, the strength I'm building doesn't transfer too well to pure endurance on the road bike. I think I'll split things up a bit and throw down a few long road rides each week to build the endurance base in addition to the strength training I get on the SS. Also, I think I'm going to start training in a 3/1 format: 3days riding, 1 day resting. That and make sure I get more consistent sleep... it all adds up.

Today: 27mi, 1500' of climbing, 17mph avg
