Did a 2 hour EM ride and 3 sets of 3 Power Intervals @ 2 minutes on and 2 minutes off.
It was quite cold - the temp was 35 when I left and the windchill was 28. The sun was out and it helped tremendously.
The Power Intervals were tough as always. I seem to be getting better at them, so hopefully it's because they are working...
I found this cool "dump" from the Polar software. It's just raw data, but it appeals to the "detail oriented geek" in me.

This was a ride of will power. I had 3.5 hours on the calendar today and when I awoke and saw the weather it instantly became a game of mental gymnastics.
It was raining, and 38 degrees and it looked to be more of the same the rest of the day. So, I suited up, put on all my rain gear, got the rain bike down and left.
All of my usual riding pals bailed, so I was on my own.
It wasn't horrible, just naggingly uncomfortable. I was dressed well and the only problem I had was with my shoe covers. I grabbed the wrong ones - the ones that are not waterproof - and I paid for it. My feet were soaked within an hour.
The wind was the worst part - a steady 20 mph wind from the east - and so I decided to head straight north as far as a could and then straight south. Where I had to go east and west, I chose roads with tree coverage.
II ended up getting home 4 hours later, soaking wet, cold and hungry. I downed a recovery drink and got a hot shower and some hot soup and feel remarkably well.
