Lets see...Friday afternoon I did a 45 min spin class...I forget what the numbers were, but it was fun and upbeat, so I just went with it...went pretty hard too.

Saturday morning, my wife and I went to 60 min spin class again. Was her 2nd of the week and my 4th. I was going to go easy, but the instructor did a really cool profile of descending length intervals that sucked me in and made me go harder than I expected.

Today we got up at 4:45am and rode in the Katy Flatlands ride west of Houston. I hung back and stayed with my wife for the entire ride since she wasn't feeling all that great. We did 51.76 miles in 3 hours and 20 minutes for a 15.5 mph average. I was proud of her for averaging such a high speed for her on a day she just wasn't feeling it.

It was a relatively easy day for me, with my max HR at 84% of max and avg HR at 72% of max. There aren't really any hills to speak of (hence the ride name), so the only time I really got my HR up was when I followed a paceline for a mile or so into a break point at around 20 mph.
