Training log 4/2/2017-4/8/2017 Indiana Randonneurs 100k

My work schedule has increased to 5 days per week which pushes my weekly commuting miles to and fro work to 90 miles.  I was unable to do any around town errands this weekend, but I did ride Indiana Randonneurs 100k Saturday.  I rode to the start of the 100k so my total miles was around 125.  Sunday I woke up and ran a tough 6 miles.  My legs are still still screaming.  Great weekend pushing it!

I left my house for the 100k Saturday morning at 6am.  It was 34degF at the time.

Clothing for the ride to the start of the 100k:
Wool Balaclava and cotton cycling cap. Good. 
Cycling jersey and windbreaker. Good. 
Cycling shorts, long tights, and shorts. Good. 
Base sock, wool sock, and Teva shoes. Good.  
Wool gloves. Good.

Start of the ride temp increased to 44degF so I changed the windbreaker for a long sleeve wool shirt.  I was comfortable.  

For the ride back home the temps were in the 50s so I took off the wool long sleeve shirt and wool socks.  I was good for the ride home.

  1. 2 cheese sandwiches
  2. 2 Lara bars
  3. 2 water bottles
  4. I bought some additional nutrition at controls.
