Sufferfest: it seemed like a good idea at the time
One of the last 4 I have to do before a cardio pause prior to riding my age on the beach next month. This was the longest of the remaining though there is another at 1:45 which will be a tight squeeze after work.
This video was trying to win most aggressive rider on a Giro mount an stage so lots of attacks on climbs of 15, 20, 20 and 8 minutes. Then 7 minute flat run to win the stage. The legs weren't super excited about driving compression rather than riding compression (a bit lighter on the right leg, and more snug around the left knee), but held up pretty well. Cadence did tend to drift a bit low, but I attribute most of that to incomplete recovery from the long drive.
Heart performed very well, particular given that sleep was cut short by about 3 hours to beat the destination storm projections. A brief blip of 1.5x actual heart rate for a short period after trying to dry off the sweat around the sensor. Peaked at 220, but settled down quickly after adjusting the strap so no real impact on the average.
Power: avg-191, max-370
