This week I started training for metric century ride, which is 100 Kilometers. This translates to 62 + standard miles. My plan is to this at the end of the training program, which is 14 weeks. Tonight was the Tempo-ride workout. I found this to be the the biggest challenge so far. A tempo ride race pace plus 2 miles per hour, for 30 minutes. My average pace is about 12 miles per hour. By my calculations, I should be able to do 7 miles in 30 minutes (race pace of 12 miles per hour plus 2 divided by 1 half hour). ElliptiGo (who developed the training program) suggested that the course taken should be as flat as possible, or with mild inclines. For this reason, I used the bike path.
The outcome was that I maintained a 12.5 MPH. That was with me pushing it. I am hoping that I can improve my time as I move forward with the program.
No Body Should Ride Alone!
