Boy howdy, I’m bushed. My plan for today was to do workout 7 in the Zwift Academy 2020 series. But I’m well aware of how intense that workout looks, and frankly I couldn’t face it this evening when it came time to get in the bike. Its all down to having ridden now for 17 days in a row. I’m really feeling it.
So I decided to take it easy. Just 115w for an hour. That’s 1.7w/kg. Nice and laid back.
Typically I find these types of rides to be extremely boring, but today’s ride passed by fairly quickly. I’m not entirely sure why, but when I first “looked up” I was already over twenty minutes in. Throw in a few duolingo lessons, and a bit of reddit browsing and another twenty minutes had slipped by. For the final twenty minutes I watched GCN’s Hank mucking around on a BMX.
And that was that. It’s good to have got in an hours exercise, even though the total calories burned could have been “beaten” in 30 minutes. Right now I need to rest, or at the very least preserve my legs. All being well I’ll do something more intense tomorrow. No point smashing myself and regretting it.
