Training

So I am training for a 2 day race (The Tour of Murrietta). Training right now consists of 4 x 4s.  4 minutes as fast as I can go 4 minutes rest, times 4.   I'm doing it on a 3% grade and trying to average 19 mph.  It is going well and were gonna see if it is helpful in the next 2 weeks.


Peace out,
J.

Ontario Crit

Well this was the first race that I thought I was going to do well in and the first one that was actually fast. My category usually averages between 24 and 25.5 miles per hour. Today was 26.9 for 55 minutes.
My legs felt flat the entire race and wouldn't wake up. We cyclists like to call that having no pop. When it came time to sprint I went around some people but not enough to get in the top 20.  I was disappointed, but there is a lot more racing to do this year. If you want to see a picture of me suffering click on the link below.

I also did 45 minutes (half) of the Pro race which was stacked and averaged 29 mph owww!!

Race prep

Well yesterday I did 2 lead out sprints and today I am gonna do one. I am on a no beer weekend, going to consume food and water like it is going out of stock.  1 more lead out sprint to do today and no hot sauce to screw up the pipes.

Well Ontario Gran Prix is in 2 days, my concussion is gone, and I love this race.  In addition I just got my new team kit and it looks sharp pictures to come. I am really excited to see how form holds up during a race that suits me. Wish me God Luck. 

Cheers
