Mountain bike warm up/down 1:05:00 [3] 17.2 km (3:47 / km) +41m 3:44 / km
ahr:132 max:145 shoes: Gekko

Big Unit in the cool and damp.
Perhaps not the best choice for the congestion that has lingered for too many weeks given that respiration was more demanding than the ride effort warranted.
The road was much wetter than I expected. Also lots of ice spots were yesterday's melt refroze into little glare sheets.
Still a needed break from the trainer.

Cardio intervals 2:14:00 [4]
ahr:146 max:164 shoes: Specialized Comp mountain

Sufferfest double
I thought I'd do a couple with the ten minute rest allowed by the knights. I just used two of the four videos already on my tablet. These would probably not be ones I would include in a set of ten.
I was pretty happy with the heart recovery in the break. The legs might need some work to qualify for knighthood.

Cardio warm up/down 47:00 [2]
ahr:128 max:139 shoes: Specialized Comp mountain

Easy spin to test the new mountain shoes and egg beaters destined for the cross bike.

It was interesting to find that the two sides want the cleat in a slightly different location to get them where I want relative to the ball of my foot. I'll check again with a harder ride to see if that holds up - then again going from recumbent to standard bike.

Cardio intervals 46:12 [4]
ahr:144 max:167 shoes: Gekko

Sufferfest: revolver

Finished the series in January with three days to spare, so goal met.

This session was mostly about the legs. Max effort for 1 minute, recover a minute then do it again x 15.

And I've almost killed this tire that was useless outside

Cardio hills 1:56:00 [4]
ahr:144 max:165 shoes: Gekko

Sufferfest: it seemed like a good idea at the time

4 climbs with the Giro: 15 minutes, 20 minutes x 2, 8 minutes.
This might be a good way to train for a Jasper ride - if I did it twice back to back.

I was pretty happy with the heart rate management on climbs that were longer than I usually encounter.
