Mission Impossible

While working with Lynda, I've really gotten to understand the importance of rest and easy days. If I don't rest and have a good time cruising keeping the TSS down then it's futile to attempt the intense workouts she has planned, it becomes mission impossible.


The goal for this past Saturday was a big IF workout. It was raining in Simi so the Coates gang and I ditched the ride last minute and did the Montrose ride in Pasadena instead. Once we got going my "mission" was to stay with this fellow -- not totally impossible. It would definitely ensure that I'd have a good ride. I was doing fine until I missed one of the accelerations. Bummer. Although it wasn't quite mission accomplished, I had a solid workout according to the powermeter so I achieved my main goal. =) Been taking it "easy" since then so I can hit the intervals hard this week.

It's impossible to be on fire all the time
