    So true
    From my first FTP to my best I'd dropped 30 pounds which definitely helped my power to weight ratio!
    I'm back to the same weight I was at pretty much which isn't helping the state of things. Gotta shed this extra!

    Late as heck, but got the daily 10 in!!

    Will be doing a super slow and easy 10 on Saturday, I think... we're going to a theatre show on the other side of the state that day, and whether or not we'll make it back with adequate time for me to hop on the bike is iffy. Super slow and easy would be if the parrot can sleep through gentle pedaling in the dark without a fan (aka: trying not to die on the trainer by keeping the heartrate to an absolute minimum). If I can't get it done, I'll just do makeup miles on the following Monday. :smile:

    Zwift training plan workout (and hence daily 10) done. Ugh. HIIT sessions on the bike can be especially draining.

    BAH! I can't edit that last ride. It wasn't 110 miles. It was 10 miles. Danged typo.

    Just finished my makeup ride for yesterday. Another 10 miler.

    (will probably be doing an Imperial century this month - just need time to do it!! Maybe... Thursday. :smiley: )

    Ugh, this ride went super hard. Should've kept my own pace instead of sticking with the pack. I am absolutely roasted.
