Calga 43km TT

New PB, 1.14.26, NP 290W.

Felt like crap from the word go, just tried to keep a steady rhythm and keep the power under 300W on the flat and 350ish on the hills.

Stuck to plan for most of it, but the power dropped quite a few times where I just couldn't get over the pedals. Chain wasn't moving all the way down the cassette which also lowered my top end speed dramatically.

All in all, a 7 minute PB from last time, a lot of benefit this time round with aero wheels, helmet and skin suit. I think a 1.10.00 is possible, but I need to figure out why my legs have not been responding of late.. I had a big rest week this week, but any efforts are quickly met with fatigue... Could still be overtrained - or - not trained for this kind of event whatsoever!!!!

5 more weeks until Spain, I need to sit down and look at what I need to do to get some improvement from the legs as I only have a couple more weeks of intensity before I start to back off..
