Comet - 2 X 60 Intervals

Garmin Connect Ride Data
Garmin Ride Summary (totals):
Distance: 37.2 mi
Moving Time: 02:02:48
Avg Speed: 18.2 mph
Max Speed: 24.7 mph

Goal: 2 x 60 minute intervals sustained in levels 3 and 4. (mission accomplished -see Power Summary below)

Ride: Cool and windy best sums up the elements, but I was very surprised by how great I felt pushing out and back during the intervals. Going out the trail was virtually empty and coming back it was the same. I did have a couple riders get in my draft on the way back so I did have a little company behind me, but I felt great mentally and physically on today's training effort.

What was great is that my mind was being nice today with a lot of motivational pushing along the way instead of focusing in on the head winds and cool weather. I will try to put those thoughts into a blog entry.
