the softride is the bomb!!!!
friday night afterwork i got in a 3k/48min swim. main set was 5x300 w/ :35 RI followed by 600m w/ pull buoy. focused on 1:30 pace.
saturday was my first ride on the remodeled softride and it did not disappoint. i rode for 90min an put in roughly 25miles. damn that bike is fast. the dura ace feels great and the carbon base bar makes the ride so smooth. i struggle for the first 10 min to feel comfortable but it was all good after that.
today was a 3hr/50+ mile ride w/ a HR avg of 117 (on the 8miles loops my HR avg was 123 overall). rode south mopac and avg 20+ mph per 8 mile loop but i had to stop alot to pee b/c i wasnt sweating too many fluids out. i am working on my nutrition strategy so i tried to take in alot of stuff. i drank 3x24oz of gatorade, 4 slat stick tablets, 5 gels and a power bar. by the time i got to my transition run i could only drink a little water. i ran for 30min after the bike. my HR avg was 145. The run felt good with a pace of 7min miles. i tried to slow my pace to mirror IMAZ goal but i was tough.
