More commitment...
In the 'Cave of Pain' for another 'Hurt Session'. This time on the turbo trainer for a 1 hour bike session consisting of a relatively hard warm up (20 mins), 5x 1 min hard / 1 min recovery, and then 30 mins tempo getting up to the top of zone 4. After the first 10 mins of the main set I was instructed to press the lap button and then record my average HR for the last 20 mins of work. I recorded a HR of 144bpm which was lower than the controlled VO2 test I did with the Coach when he calculated my LTHR at 150bpm. I was convinced I was working hard enough as over the whole hour session, including the warm up, I recorded an average speed of 36.7km/h and 250watts - not bad.
After doing the hour bike set I jumped off the turbo, quickly transitioned into my running shoes and got on the treadmill for a relatively steady run for 20 mins to complete the workout.
Quick shower, then bed.
Rest day tomorrow and I am going to take it!
