Hammer Time

I got out for a good ride last night. I rode my typical Wednesday night route from last year (route map http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=112190094690078853123.0004706589e2521d532e9&ll=44.94609,-93.34774&spn=0.135347,0.373192&t=h&z=12 ). It is a 10 mile ride to Theodore Wirth, two laps on the trails and back home. My focus this week is to work on my recovery. I have been very slow to recover from hard rides this Spring, and my legs were still heavy from last Sunday. I started with a good warmup, and worked on race pace to and from the trail. Put a couple of intervals in the ride for good measure. Total mileage was 27. I need to put a computer on the bike so I can start gauging performance.
