Friday afternoon-evening

Bike 57.2 miles in 2:48:00, HR 143. I pushed it some times and then kept reminding myself that it is an endurance ride so I wouldn't ride too fast. Still, 20.3 is good for me at a long training ride, and it was little windy today. I felt pretty good, used 3 gels (1:05,1:50,2:25) and 48oz of gatorade.



Run right after the bike, 6 miles 48:08 HR 157 but I was in the high 150's and low 160's for the last half so I'm calling it a zone 3 run, which is what I planned to do anyway. 1 gel 2 miles into the run.



Starting to feel better at pushing the pace. I want to get all of my 6 mile brick runs under 50:00 from now on and try to push for 48:00, I'm thinking of setting a goal of 52:00 for each half of the run at Muncie (6.55 miles), that should bring me in pretty close to 1:45.



Tomorrow I'll reduce the intensity of the workouts to rest a bit so I'll have some strength for racing on sunday.
