Once again, mother nature decided to throw a curve ball today. I woke up to 39 degrees, thick fog, and drizzle - not good riding weather. So...it was another day a the gym doing a coupe of spin classes.
I started with a 45 minute warmup before class started - mostly fast cadence 100-110 RPM spin and slower 85 RPM power climbs. Then the Pro class started - 1 hour and 15 minutes of hard riding, but I learned a lot. Specifically how to surge out of a group, and then interval sprint to widen the gap - good stuff to know. Definitely kills your legs, but if you're able to stick with it, it'll pay off.
After the Pro Class, I stayed for the group spin (1 hour) to round out my ride for the day. Lots of standing running intervals and long grinding climbs - good way to finish.
I had 3 hours on the schedule for riding today, and managed to get it all in.
3 Hours Fast Cadence Spinning indoors.
Avg Speed. 16-18 MPH
Total Miles: 48 miles
Tomorrow's weather: Sunny and a high of 66 degrees. Thunderstorms expected in the afternoon. I'll be riding outside - for the first time this week.
