Had a great ride this morning on Matt Wilpers 75-minute Power Zone Endurance Ride. My first 75 minute ride so a PR by default. 815 kJ. Definitely started to gas out after 60 minutes. 🚴🏻 #FitByFifty

Noticed in Streaks today that I have meditated 700 days in a row. Meditation has become a bedrock habit. It has also become a key component of my #FitByFifty missions.

I hit a new 60-min PR in Matt Wilpers Power Zone Endurance Ride this morning. 676 kJ versus my previous 653 kJ from Sep 26, 2020.

\n

It was another Zone 2 / 3 ride but I leveled it up since I felt like my zone data is a little old. I need to do a new FTP test! I spent a lot of time in the higher end of Zone 4. You can see that the last 3 efforts my power faded a bit. I was definitely feeling it in my legs.

\n\"Peloton\n

My heart rate was at Threshold for 67% of the ride and bursted into Max Capacity during the efforts toward the end. You can see I was a bit gassed as my heart rate was climbing and power was dropping in those final efforts.

\n\"Peloton\n

It was a great ride and I was joined by a number of friends riding live as well. I’m a big fan of Peloton Live Rides, it encourages you to push and make the most of it. #FitByFifty

Today I did my fourth day in a row on my Peloton bike. I can tell that the workouts I’ve been putting in over the last months are having a big impact. A few months ago I would have been spent after consecutive days like this, but today I felt invigorated. You get this feeling like you are Dancing on the Pedals when you climb out of the saddle. It is fun and I haven’t felt that in a very long time. Recovering and going again, repeat. Feel good power in my legs. Gaining some confidence around riding a Century next summer for the first time in a decade plus! Good stuff. #FitByFifty
