Drew/other bike people, how long should that take me?

Thats a pace of 20 miles an hour. Seems pretty damn good to me.

kmanick · 09-22-2008, 02:20 PM

when I was training for my Sprint this past August I was riding 10 miles in 20 minutes and then immediately running 4 miles as close to or under 32 minutes as I could.
My cardio went way up this summer doing that every other morning before work.

10 miles in thirty minutes is pretty good. 3 minute miles.

I'm down to 208 (from 218 in July).

Football again tomorrow, possiby, the forecast is one of heavy rain

Either way, cycling and weights every day until Christmas seems do-able regardless of the weather

Afternoon:
5k on the C2 rower: 23:37

Got my diet in check again

Depends what you're riding on. Level terrain, minimal to no headwind, no traffic lights or rtoad crossings you have to stop at, and on a road bike (super-low rolling resistance), you should be able to get that up to high 20's, maybe even over 30. Mountain bike on the same terrain, it's a bit more respectable.

Rolling ups and downs, and your average speed is naturally going to drop a lot, so if there were some significant hill climbs in there that's not bad at all.

FWIW, there's this bike path near me that I ride end to end every now and then. It's about 26 miles round trip, and including stopping for traffic/other pedestrians and crossings, and the fact it goes slightly uphill for 2/3 of the way out, then slightly down, I've gotten as fast as sub 1:20 end to end, about an average of 22 miles an hour. Given a lesser pedestrian load and some lucky breaks on the crossings, I'm hoping to crack one hour by the end of the season.

190.0 this morning, still - I've had zero time to excersize lately. :/

B Lopez · 09-30-2008, 05:05 PM

This morning:

Squats @ 315 lbs/143 kg @ 5x5
Then some sprints.

Drew, you probably wont get any less than 187 with your size/workout. Start working on how you look.

Do your pecs get sore when you bike? By the time I'm done they're cramping and sore for daaaays.
