Windier than yesterday but oddly easier to deal with than some of the days this month. Nice. Weather not looking good for tomorrow, but maybe I can squeeze in a ride

Started MFP so I could lose weight for easier riding. Cheaper than a lighter bike but not as fun. I plan on doing the Heatstroke 100 in August and doing a shorter route. If I could do 100 miles by that time, sweet! Biggest issue after buying a HRM is that I always ride anaerobic and run out of steam. Nice to know I can ride for 45 minutes like this, but won't work for this type of ride. On an indoor trainer, I can fine tune HR but outside is torture.
50 miles this month so far. Been working on cadence, endurance and HR. Today's ride still ended up being anaerobic but I had to fight a lot of wind and hills. So, not a lot of miles but getting much better at everything else.
Strava only counts outside rides for their goals and with it raining a lot, I suck. LOL.

4/01 - 1hr spin - 16 miles
4/02 - 1.25hr spin - 20 miles
4/03 - 16 miles @16.3mph 700' climbing --- First outside ride of the year!
4/05 - 32 miles @15.7mph 1,500' climbing --- Took way more effort then it should have. Have a lot further to get back in shape then i thought.
4/06 - 16 miles @17mph 700' climbing --- felt a bit better, upgraded to between ok/tired at start of ride instead of tired/week.
4/07 - 30min spin - 8miles
4/08 - 1hr spin - 16miles
4/09 - 45min spin - 12 miles
4/13 - 16 miles @17.5mph with 700' climbing. Felt okay/normal at start of ride.
4/14 - 16 miles @17mph with 700' climbing. Had some carbs (powerbar gel) for first time in a month - felt 'normal' at start of ride and after a 2nd gel energetic (first time in a month) by the end!
4/16 - 16 miles @17.2mph with 700' climbing - 80% effort and no carbs. Finally felt 'normal' so Keto might work for me after all. Going to do a longer (2hr) ride this weekend to test my 'anti-bonk' diet.
4/18 - 22 miles @19.7mph with 700' - Kept up with the 'A' riders for the first 27 min. 45min break between rides for a snack then went on 2nd ride of the morning.
4/18 - 44.5 miles @16.9mph with 2,200' - Left with middle group (16-16.5 av) but dropped them. Regrouped at top of first big hill and was caught by slow group. Still not sure what happened to the rest of the middle group (did they get passed by the slow group???). Did both rides with no carbs and 2nd ride with only 150 calories worth of nuts. (testing 'anti-bonk' keto diet). Was low energy for last hour but did better then I expected.
4/19 - 44 miles @16mph w/ 2,550' climbing. Tired from Saturday's rides but first weekend with good weather so made the most of it!
4/21 - 20 miles @15.5 w/ 800'- back to no energy again

Biked home from tonight's baseball game in the sleet, wind, and snow. Looking forward to returning to the warm south Friday. Still, 186 miles to cover with 8 days remaining, so I'll be putting in a bit more time on the saddle down there.

Took the longer route home from the mid-day ballgame today, as it was early enough to to cycle home through an unlit park vs. on the busier roads. Left leg is a big sore from all of the climbing this week, so I may give up on trying to catch up on my last 173 miles in my final 7 days with a marathon coming up in a week and a half.

It's been years since I've done any distance. I have a 40 mile tour scheduled for May 3 and have been practicing clipping in and out of my new shoes on my shiney new Felt bike. But only doing about 4 or so miles commuting to various activities.0
