ADDENDUM - Anatomy of an Attempted Comeback Part III

Couple of questions to answer regarding the last post.

What is the longest ride you are up to?
> I did the longest ride I have done in over 3 years this past weekend ... 4:25 with some climbing ("wilson hill", "marshal wall" and some shorter 4-5 minute climbs) ... these are not the biggest climbs around her like Spring MT, Trinity, Cavedale, Pine Flat but it proved a worthy challenge in my process. Speed was not fast, but it was steay and i pulled most of the ride. (happy to do so AND recovered well)

What Type of Workouts are you doing with your cycling team?
> This is a tough one as they are variable (and a little secretive ;) but here is a sample of a simplistic but challenging one
- Long Warm of 30+ minutes
- 10 minutes straight, variable gears ... effort is FT (power or building FT HR)
- 2 minuets EZ
- 5 x 2minutes @ 30sec recovery ... FT power / HR
- 2 minutes recovery
- 10 x 1min @ 30sec recovery ... FT+ power / FT HR
- 4 x 30sec hard / 30sec EZ ... hard for me ws FT + 75 watts
- Warm Down

Hope that answers your questions and some of the vagueness ;)
