And full disclosure I haven't weighed myself in a while but pretty sure I'll be heavier for the race!

I weighed myself this morning... lost 20 kilos

That was one major 💩

I've been saving it up

My coach has set me a 45 min FTP effort so thought it might be a decent ride for it.

You’ll be finished in way less than 45 mins…

When did that start?

When did that start?

When I kept beating him

Not officially until 2nd Jan 2022 but he has sent me a couple of bits to do this week.

Nice one. I'm always interested in the regimes that coaches prescribe - so keep us informed.

Personally, I'm on a mainly Zone 2 block - building my base back up prior to the hard work starting again. FTP is slowly moving North again after a fairly chunky reduction at season end.

Ive just found out Im not available for tomorrows event. We are going to see the lights at a country house 🎄🎄 🛋

Can I not do it the day after, seen as its a TT event? No advantage to be solo 🙏

Only 2kg gained! And Christmas is basically over at this point...🦃🐖🍻🍾🍺🥂

Was busy with work today. Can't believe how many great excuses you guys posted in the meantime

Let's be honest here - I'm not exactly 'light', have low FTP, just the basic TT frame and suboptimal wheels, never did a TT... The list goes on. We all know who will be closing the pack tomorrow

 

[Joffey]

...which is why the TT stage is (IMO) 20 minutes too long - if you do a 20-min FTP test effort, you'll be f*cked for the rest of the stage and you'll post a sub-optimal time...

Nothing to do with wanting to cling onto my slim lead over Michael!

Ah, correction - looking at Training Peaks it's a 20 minute effort but the session is 45 mins long.

How far is the course tomorrow kids? Gonna have to try and shoehorn it in!

Will do. Got a couple of tests this week and next but then the real stuff starts on first week in Jan. I think we are working on getting me fatigued and training my body to recover quickly for this very hilly sportive that I've entered in June.

QUESTION for any TRAINING PEAKS users... (Please help!)

Is there any way to import a Training Peaks workout into Zwift then run that on ERG mode? Or would I have to somehow import the TP work out into the WattBike app and then run Zwift at the same time with 0% trainer difficulty?

Thanks in advance!
