95 Days to go.
Last night was my first time trial of the season. A bit of a rush in preparation, so not much warm up, but made it to the start, without forgetting anything essential.
Decided to ride a considered race. Keep the heart rate to around 150 - 155. Seemed to work OK. Outward leg had a bit of a tail wind, and speed was good. After the turn I tried to push rate up a little, but computer (Sports Track Phone app) showed HR as 152..... push a bit harder..... still 152. Harder ...... still 152. Closer look showed the phone had locked up !?! A bit annoying, but nothing to worry about. not had it happen before. Think it may be at the same time as I got a text message from Jo.
Also had phone strapped between tri bars in a ipod arm band thing. That worked surprisingly well too. Thought it may wobble too much or flap in the wind, but was fine.
Came home with a 27:25. Pretty good for me, and about a minute faster than I had expected beforehand. Good start to the season.
