XC Sking 1:24:00 [3]
shoes: Pursuit
2.5 x (1k / 3min + 2k / 5min)
+ 3 Fisher Hill sprints
rep) pace, HR_max / (12/18 data, no wind) / (11/28 data, wind)
1 = 1k) a/ 3;19, 166 / ( 2:58, 167) / ( w/ 2:52, 165)
2 = 2k) a/ 3;22, 165 / ( 3:09, 169) / ( w/ 3:06, 167)
3 = 1k) w/ 2;50, 170 / ( 3:06, 171) / ( a/ 3:21, 167)
4 = 2k) w/ 3:04, 170 / ( 3:21, 170) / ( a/ 3:24, 169)
5 = 1k) -- 3;04, 167 / ( 3:06, 169) / ( w/ 3:04, 167)
1) and 2) definitely slowed by wind. Less tail on 3) but still there. 4) even less. 5) essentially calm but slow due to concrete and the little rise at the Boatramp Lot.
Given that this was my first hard intensity effort in a month, I'm pretty happy. To some degree I am technique limited; I'm just not as stable and balanced at high speed.
The dog on Fischer Rd hill is either really really happy to see me or really really not amused by me.
