Weird day (night)

Sometimes weird things happen. Today i woke up at around 1am and spent almost 4 hours fighting with bed sheets. Anoying to say the least… i ended up having breakfast at 4:30pm and had a hour of sleep before swim workout. I should never go back to bed, i woke up a bit trashed.
 
Anyway, i didn’t felt that bad during the day, and had my standard ride after swim and a short run at the end of the day with the kids of my triathlon club, Sergio Dias in the kids category of course.
 
For the ones that know the area, my standard ride is a 82km ride from my home to sintra, go around sintra mountain and then come back home. A bit more specific for the Google earth lovers (im one) the route is: Queijas,Carcavelos, Estoril, Cascais, Guincho, Malveira da serra, cabo da roca, Colares, Sintra, Estoril, Carcavelos, Queijas. Same profile as the post below, actually today i had the same workout with the difference of having 2 sets of 30min(15min low Zn3+15min High Zn3) instead of only 2X20min. Another difference from one week ago was that i was 6 min faster, AAH Laughing

    Congrat’s on your award, much deserved.( I think you will be the first to go sub 2:40 at hawaii). I was looking at your graph, just curious whats is your watt output at LT. One more question, what is your goal for hawaii this year, Top 5 Top 10? I think you will crack the top ten for sure this year and a win in Arizona!

    Oh, Thanks, i would like to accomplish that but thats may be a bit extreme for me :D

    My FTP was around 330W last season, didnt test it this season yet

    hello again! Forgot to ask what is you heart rate at LT. What’s extreme going sub 2:40 or breaking the top 10.
    If you can drop 10min on your bike you are in the top. And if you bike the same sub 2:40 is in your reach.
    Oh well have a great day! Good luck in Arizona this might be your year #1
    cheers

    “If you can drop 10min”

    i think the key is on the swim time and where i leave the water. It is clearly easier to ride in the “group” even in legal distance than doing 180km alone :P

    My LT hr is 180 for the bike and 182 for the run

  5. i cant understand……
