9 Hours......

Nine straight hours on a trainer-ouch. Training for RAW requires mileage- and in Boston no real way to do it this winter except get on an indoor trainer. For me, the psychological ability to spend this much time on the trainer/bike is key- and at a heart rate much higher than I will race RAW is a good thing.

RAW Training progresses

Just finished two successive heavy weeks of 282 and 300 miles- my continue increase in miles is so far, going according to plan. The goal for the week of 2/2 is about 330 miles- with a light week following. So far, so good- and the knee is holding up.
