I have come to the conclusion that I need to start quantifying my training so that I can get the most out of the road races that I am entering. My hear rate monitor was the first step, the next step is time trials. I decided on two courses, a long course of 14 miles which is an out and back along the San Luis Rey River, and a short course that has a hill (to be disclosed later).
My inaugural time trial results were:
Time - 42:10 minutes
Dist - 14.54 miles
Avg. Spd. - 20.6
Max Spd.- 26.7
Misc. Notes - My legs were still a bit sore from my run on Tuesday, and the trail had some wet spots in the run-in / run-out that slowed me down.
Sunday-
Saturday night I watched "Super Bad", very hilarious, well at least 'till I passed out. My ability to drink has dropped, and I was out at 8:30. I think it might be due to the weight lost. I am down to 169 from 183! Unfortunately, two days later my head is still hurting. I decided to take it easy and did leg isolation drills at the gym. Another new workout for me and something I need to do more of.
