Cycling 3:42:00 [2] 56.0 mi (3:58 / mi) +1000m 3:45 / mi
ahr:129 max:172 shoes: TCR
Was 90% certain I over the virus. So glad I went today. Felt better as the ride went on. Waited for the slowest rider 5k from the end and then wound it up.
Recorded highest ever cycling HR of 172!!! that built steadily over last 5 mins. 6 higher than best in 2019, and 2 over previous highest in 2013 on a hot summer's evening.
Clearly in excellent cardio shape.

Took the plunge and bought some heavily discounted MM/bikepacking kit, with the aim of topping it up cheaply during the off season.

Cycling race 1:01:51 [5] 25.0 mi (2:28 / mi) +130m 2:26 / mi
shoes: Giant A1
Finally achieved ambition to beat my age for a 25. Based on last week's 10, my predicted time based on the same two course a week apart 2 years ago was a 62.33. However the conditions were poorer this year. I think I held back too much last time. That said, I did a none-wind assisted 30s negative split today. It helped knowing the final wind assisted return leg would literally flyby.
Average at far RAB, 6.5 miles 21.5, RAB at 12.6 miles 24.1, at 19 miles 23.5, for 25 miles 24.3. Last 10 (4 into wind, 6 behind), 30s quicker than last week's PB!
Very fast course, lost 15s and 10s queuing at far RAB.

Cycling race 24:21 [5] 10.0 mi (2:26 / mi) +80m 2:23 / mi
shoes: Giant A1
Started with 10s to "spare," in wrong gear too, to peels of laughter as I almost came to a halt after the push off. Garmin failed too, so no feedback, but must have judged pace right. Discovered I had no rear light on furthest point of warm up and detoured to CP.
Cycling warm up/down 23:00 [3] 7.0 mi (3:17 / mi) +150m 3:05 / mi
max:150 shoes: Giant A1

Pushed on the hills. Due to added loop, was racing the setting sun (rear light flat). Both legs cramped up for 20 mins afterwards standing normally.
