Between 140 & 150
Hey, look who is back! Want to go for a bike ride?
For today, just me....my bike....and my Suunto HR monitor for today's tempo up to Gold Hill and the surrounding area. Basically just pegged it at a nice endurance tempo heart rate of 140-150 for around 2.5 hours. Today's 60F was by far the nicest temp we have seen since last Sunday when it was in the mid-70's. Good to melt off all the snow.
Pavement soon turned to dirt. Dry dirt I might add. Only sloppy in a few spots...much to my surprise.
Quick check of the HR monitor....yep, still where I need to be. HR stayed where it was supposed to.....and I mixed up the cadence from time to time.
Refreshing views all day thanks to the 1+ foot of snow that fell above 6,000 ft.
Final drop down into Gold Hill...where I then turned around and started pedaling back to Boulder.I met up with Sonya for the very quick descent back into town.
T-minus 7 days until race day.
