Ride from MoBiz's to Lake Elmo. A wet one... I thought I would have been much colder, but was actually pretty comfortable as long as we kept at it.

Great Run at Lake Elmo. The control locations were pretty easy for the most part, I stuttered on 3 and 4 pretty bad. Three less so. 9-10 I got disoriented a little. But the rest I felt on the map and didn't get confused as to where I was going. I caught up with FoxShadow leaving 4, and we went back and forth a bit. Different routes, but flip flopping as to who got to the control first. I saw him dive in the creek, but only heard the impact when he took the digger leaving 8. Legs felt pretty beat and he pulled away pretty good when I fumbled mid-route on 10.

Great location for reading subtle contours. The controls were such that you wouldn't miss many if you were off slightly, but I imagine there were some fish-hook looking routes during the last 100 meters approaching the controls for a lot of them. I focused on reading the contours and it worked out pretty good for the most part.

I am digging Mr. Curtis' new tool for plotting. See Toddp's post for a link.

Bike ride back from Lake Elmo. I could have sworn we were on a longer route, but it ended up over a mile shorter. Good ride, with a strong headwind the last 8 miles. Tom and Biz ramped it up a little once we reached the U. Great training.

Carmichael Power Training Class: The complete pedal cycle

This class tries to get you to pedal in a complete revolution. Started off with two 45 second single leg pedal sessions on each leg for a total of 4. tough to keep my balance as I had no place to put the free leg. came unclipped a couple of times.

Then three 3 minute max power intervals at 110 RPM. As much power as you can put out as long as you maintain the high RPM. I was about to puke after the third. Was going upstairs to refill my water bottle and take some salt tabs and about fainted....

finished with "stomp" ladders of 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8 seconds in biggest gears, hardest effort without leaving the saddle.

The point was to focus on complete revolutions throughout. Average power was only 175 as there was a significant amount of recovery time. Max was 643 with 6 of the 9 stomp sessions maintaining 550.

Is this supposed to be fun?

Work run. Different route than I am used to. The group left before I was ready, so had to do a little quick step and razzle dazzle short cut to catch them.

Great day to be outside.
