Getting closer

in #steem • 11 hours ago

After yesterday's 52 kilometer ride where i set a new record time today was another opportunity to try and shave some time off that, the weather was exactly the same with a very light 4 kilometer wind.

The sun was out and i was ready to go, after getting up at 5.30am i went around the 3 kilometer block with my weighted vest on just to wake up.

Yesterdays time for my 52 kilometer circuit was 2hrs and 33 minutes, my legs today felt pretty good so off i went.

Today i managed to take 2 minutes off yesterdays time and did the 52 kilometers in 2hrs 31 minutes, i still want to go under 2hrs 30 minutes but that will have to wait for another day.

After my ride and after a shower i decided a homemade smoothie was in order, i had strawberries with an apple and 2 x bananas with some coconut water.

Here is my smoothie which was very tasty and just what i needed after my ride, i have been for a couple of small walks since and will reach my daily goal of 15 kilometers walked for the day.

Sort:  

That weighted vest warmup at 530am sounds brutal but it clearly worked since you shaved two minutes off your time. You are getting so close to cracking the 2 hour 30 minute mark.

I think my body is getting used to the weighted vest so its not brutal anymore.

time for a heavier one maybe?
