Sprints

20080229cropI rode outside and did sprints today. There was a kicking tailwind on the way out and it’s always fun to sprint with a tailwind! My wattage was pretty good for the sprints, considering I haven’t done a real sprint workout in a while. In between the sprints I just spun at a low effort level. Surprisingly, my norm power for the hour ride was 235 watts, even though my sprints were too short to produce an NP buster. So not bad for what I consider an “easy” workout. We’ll see what the weather brings this weekend, but I’m hoping to get out for at least one long-ish ride.
