Cycling 30:00 [2]
ahr:139
Ground was frozen this AM so I could ride the trails to work. Threw in an extra hill or two. One section wasn't quite frozen and I managed to get a grape-sized clod of dirt right in the open mouth.
Cycling 38:00 [2]
Commute home- rail trail and roads- did some extra distance, but too tired from work to go as far as I wanted.

Cycling intervals (Trainer) 30:00 [4]
ahr:147 max:179
Started to rain, so I did my "hills" on the trainer. HR to 179, which is easy for trails but hard indoors.
The plan calls for 4-6 sets of 45 seconds hard climb at 55 RPM, then 2 minutes recovery per interval. I did 2 minutes on hard, then 2 easy for 4 sets. Probably more than called for, but I can't get the reistance up enough for 55RPM hard.

Running 30:00 [3]

Run to work- took a longer route. Good AR day today- paddling, biking and running. Bulletdog got extra hill training running after a wild turkey who was too stupid to fly off!

Event: Paris to Ancaster
Cycling 1:30:00 [3]
Did Paris- Ancaster with Bash and The Minister. Easy paced ride, nice way to start the season. Great to be off the trainer, but I think it helped as I went hard on some of the hills, and the recumbent ('bent) bike outclimbed just about everyone back with us. No way was I going to be seen walking up hills!
Probably not the best idea to try and ride as a group, as we kept getting separated anyway and had to wait a lot.

Cycling 1:30:00 [2]
Paris- Ancaster- these were the sections where we got separated and waited up. Also did a first aid stop when a rider went down with cramps.
On roads the others can't stay on my tail to draft me as the 'Bent is so low. It's hard for me to look back, so I'd eventually realize they're off and coast down. Not the best bike for a group ride. In AR, we're often connected with tow ropes, and no crowds.
