My work schedule has made training difficult, so I've tried to get up earlier in the morning and now I'm working mostly evening shifts. Up at seven, riding by eight, at work at two. Sounds like a plan to me.
I have a crit coming up this Sunday at noon, and then another crit in Minneapolis the following Sunday. I think I need to talk to coach about adjusting my schedule.
In other news, I've started doing my endurance rides on the mountain bike trails. The Procaliber is sweet, and Propedal is pretty nice to have, but I need to change up the fit and check out other propedal settings.
I've been doing these core workouts pretty seriously. Partially because my coach has been on top of me to keep up with them and partially because I know my back is one of my biggest weaknesses. I am also very familiar with bicycle fitting. Even with all of this, my back was feeling a little taxed when I went out this morning with Geo. I'm going to drop my seat a bit and throw a shorter stem on and see how that goes.
I called it the Zombie Jesus ride. Geo rode most of the technical features, and then put his bike upside-down in a tree on something I've never been able to clean smoothly, but have never crashed on.
Question: Should I just ignore how much I weigh if I'm doing the training, eating well, and feeling fast? Or should I try and drop a few without losing power?
