The Story
Less than 24-hours after my last ride, there I was back on the trainer, today doing a 6's workout.
Remember that means just doing six-minute intervals in one harder gear for each of the first three segments, then back down one gear at a time to where you started....in in chunks of six minutes at a time.
No issues to report and I felt good.
Part of the story today is about sweat. Big sweat.
I have taken to pulling on an old and rather heavy hoodie over the top of the shirt I wear in an effort to get a really good sweat in. I think of it as a cleansing of sorts of the body.
I'm warmer (and wetter) than I need to be, but that is my intent in doing this. Sweat it out....as the old saying goes.
Over 100 miles now for the indoor season.
And over this past week of Weigh-In Wednesday on my PhilCast radio show I lost .7. Hey, it's something!
