I loved tonight's ride!!!!
11 sets of sprints: 0.20 mi and then 3 minutes rest. We had a really long warm up- I spinned for at least 20 minutes and cut my cool down a bit short since I was anxious to get home.
I basically came in consistently second but I felt great! I still think I don't "leave it all on the field" but I suppose that's okay for Ironman training.
My average watts were solid. Over 450 in the first few sets and then they'd range between 346-388 for the majority of the sets. The first one caused Ali to almost puke (the puke bucket was moved between us!) and I started out near 588 watts!!!
I kept calling Marni my "little bunny" because she is so fast out if the gate, as if I were at the dog races! Generally about half way, I'd catch up to her and then hold her off as she'd fade. The second to last set she beat me and everyone cheered- it was hilarious.
Tomorrow is a day off since I have another vo2 test on Saturday morning... I am heading to FFC Pine Grove for my free assessment with a personal trainer- who will no doubt be shocked at the quantity if body fat I'm able to retain with all this working out! ((I anticipate a bummer post about that!)). After that, I'm heading to Running Away to checkout their winter sale (50% off!!) and then Element Multisport for a ladies night.
