First things first

Ok, so i decided to start posting on a blog, why, well i want to keep better track of my training, and this could be an interesting way to keep me in check. So here is a recap of the past few days, friday, afew hours of teleskiing, followed by some compu-trainer time at Green Mountain Rehab. 30 minutes on a TT course, 270 average watt, topping out at 554 for abit. Followed by about an hour on the bike path.

Saturday, I wanted to die. Planned on meeting my lady out at smuggs for some skiing after a ride out there, but got rained and iced on an hour out. Decided to change plans and do 4x5-7 minutes hill climbing, all seated. All intold 4.5 hours of real real cold riding, 40 degree rain, right.

Today, worked some, had a relaxing morning at home making breakfast. Sat on the trainer for about 30 minutes, while we are having a nor'easter out. To recap the indoor riding this year, started in NOVEMBER, comtinued on til April. That makes 6 months of riding indoors. Afew 5-6 hour rides thrown in outside, but that is 6 months of riding the trainer for 30-1.5 hours. Most of those days were after tele skiing or a nordic workout. It really sucks at this point. But northern VT has to have some positives, oh yes, knee deep powder days in april, that makes it all right. Plus I realized my race for the year, the one I want to podium at, 24 hours of Great Glen is in August. I got it, all in time, got the base now time to focus.
