I figured the only way I am going to stay accountable for my workouts is to write about them daily on the blog.
I have finished all my base miles by completing the 3 base phases and now I am in week 3 of the build 1 phase. I generally like to get up early and ride, but this morning I just couldn't pull myself out of bed. As I laid there this morning I felt my legs still sore from Sunday's endurance ride and Saturday's anaerobic intervals and I stayed up way too late last night. So after we got all the kids to bed tonight I hopped on the bike about 8:30 for my ride. Tonight's ride was a P1 for those of you familiar with Friel's Mountain Bikers Training Bible, it was a short 1 hour ride which consisted of a 10 minute warm up, and 25 jumps - in sets of 5 - each 1 minute apart with 5 minutes in between. The 1st set was rough, I was not warmed up enough and my legs still felt dead from the weekend. The next 4 sets went much better and my legs felt good after the ride was over.
