Solid endurance training this weekend. Was pushing for a 300+ miles for the weekend. Had 155 on Saturday and 152 on Sunday. Did not go for faster speed. It was simply mental preparation and saddle time. Funny some may wonder why … I could answer because I can but reality is even I sometimes struggle on long rides. It was crazy this morning after 40 miles I debated myself if I may call it a day after 100 miles or if I shall try to get about 145 miles in (to get a total of 300). Today around mile 75 I joined a local group doing the ‘Easy Sunday Morning’ ride. And even I did my share of pulling after the ride and me being at mile 115 I decided to add a decent loop to get over 140 miles. Happy I was able to get it over 150. It was a mindset fight more than physical fight … glad I pushed for it. At the end I decided to add a few miles going into headwind only to see how I do. Overall a good solid weekend of endurance training. Glad I did stick to it.
