Walking 1:30:00 [0] 6.9 km (4.6 kph) +68m
ahr:66 max:90
Walk with Dawn around Radyr. She'd never been across the old Llandaff Loop railway bridge (ST142 795) before!
Saw Dave Powsland and Charlotte riding their bikes and Tim L (+2 kids + twins) too!
Slightly above the 1hr limit but it was a little exploratory.

COVID-19 period
Garden maintenance activities:
- Scarified the back lawn again but deeper. Filled a large bin bag full of thatch and moss
- Cut the edge beside the slabs down to the bottom using a half moon cutter and removed the bits of turf
- As above but just below the slabbed patio
Garden is definitely looking better
Remaining lawn/garden jobs:
- Remove bottom garden fence panels, clear debris behind, clean fence panels, replace and paint
- Paint other fence panels
- pressure wash back patio
- prepare raised beds for seeding veg
- prepare borders for seeding flowers
- feed with lawn fertiliser when it arrives from Homebase
- seed small patches where there is no grass
-
- front lawn: not sure if I should dig it up and re-seed or not?
Other jobs:
- prepare and finish sunken area for Ocean Kayak
- wash kayaks
- fix holes in surfski
- fix holes in Nelo
- paint house with what remaining paint?
- tidy garage

Description
Gibraltar -3 is 105 minutes of continuous riding where you'll spend 90 minutes between 70-75% FTP.
Goals
Training at the high end of the Endurance range is still quite productive, especially as the ride durations climb. Recovery from rides at this effort level is usually pretty quick, but longer rides in this wattage range can take a surprising toll on even very fit athletes.
This is where fairly conservative ultra-distance triathletes will live for hours at a time. This is also where a lot of time is spent during any long road ride or milder-terrain trail ride.
There is no scheduled rest during this workout, but brief, occasional backspins are encouraged if they're the difference between loss of form and a high-quality workout.
Entertainment - Movie: The Aeronauts (quite good)
