042809 – bowl + lida repeats
Workout: last cycle day before BA.
Plan: 1 or 2x around the bowl w/ the peloton, 4x repeats up Lida and perhaps
a few more burnouts up salvia or an extended one up Sacred Heart after
the repeats.
Actual: no bowl, no peloton. no ‘real’ warmup, straight to Sacred Heart – riding
hard right out the gate with Joe & Mike. Never been up that fast before.
came down the back side out to the top of Lida and took that down to
Chevy Chase (going away from the rose bowl), took Chevy Chase going
back up, then finished by doing a seated sprint up Lida. 1:13 ride time,
13.7 miles, 2996ft of elevation gain, 785 calories… LINK TO BIKELY MAP.
218ft of climbing per mile average, or an average 4% grade. but when
considering half of that is downhill… whew!!
Nutrition:

new amy lu’s flavor! i have one packet left of the apple sausage flavor. i do actually like the cheese…haha. but mixing it up with the tequila lime chicken would be good! does your costco have the zone bars again?

yeah, i’m so down with the rotisserie chicken. if i don’t have time to cook meats and veggies, it’s the best way to go.
damn, today’s WOD is tough for me with the cleans. o-life on saturdays help out a lot. i’m going to continue going to that for a while. this past saturday, we did clean & jerk along with a quick 5 minute grace at the end. i think i need to stay at 95lbs and work on my technique today on elizabeth. still having a tough time getting it on my finger tips and letting it rest on my shoulder.

I need to get my Polar watch fixed. I can’t get the elevation charts or anything out of it. I’m completely suspicious of Bikely lately. ACH is not 7500ft cumulative, last night felt like 2k feet max, or maybe my fitness is so great that my perspective is massively skewed
