Training Log - 2/11/07

Distance: 30.4 miles
Average speed: 14.8 mph
Weight: 190.0 lbs
Falling over with your feet stuck in the pedals in front of two attractive women: priceless (*rolling eyes*)

Skipped training yesterday altogether. I've got a decent head and chest cold brewing which I'm trying to get rid of. No fever yet though.

My Team in Working schedule interfered with my Team in Training schedule. So I had to work today instead of meeting up with the team this morning to do the 30 mile ride with them. Too bad too as it was such a nice day for a bike ride. My work was finished around noon. So I came home to take a nap to nurse my cold, mounted the new bike computer on my bike and then hit the road. I did the 30 miles here. It wasn't too bad. I didn't stop except for the the aforementioned spill at the intersection. I also didn't try to set any land speed records. I still had some life left in my legs but my knees were letting me know they weren't used to this distance.

I also tilted my handlebars back in order to rest my hands on the stems of the brakes/gear changers. I'll see how this feels tomorrow night. I may want to raise up my feet just a little as well. Overall, I feel pretty good.

Goal for tomorrow night -- 12 miles and then see how I feel.
