On Wednesday I did my 100km experience for the month, for which I had signed up for the Strava problem. I completed in 4 hrs 23 minutes for a median velocity of 14.2 mph (22.8 kph). This was 49 minutes quicker than after I did one in March, so I used to be fairly happy. However I used to be wiped afterwards. So Thursday after my higher physique exercise I simply did a straightforward restoration cruise. I felt adequate to go tougher once more yesterday for 3 hours. At present can be one other simple restoration experience, this time on my upright emphasizing filth paths, which I at all times get pleasure from. Thus ends a tricky week. I’ve observed my quantity has crept up a bit, so I’m going to chop again so I don’t exceed a median of two hours a day. However I’ll nonetheless work arduous on my extra intense coaching.
Wednesday experience is posted on Strava right here. Thursday right here, Friday right here.
I did an experiment capturing a video on my digital digital camera to see if I may extract high quality stills later from it. It labored out fairly properly. The video is posted right here. It’s fairly bouncy, there are numerous locations on the path with tree roots and I had my 20″ wheels with highway tires pumped as much as 100 psi (6.9 bar).
