Slow go is better than no go

You know you're on the right track when you finish a workout feeling `just fine' when just a month ago that same workout would have left you flat and exhausted. It is a humble admission but I finished a 25 mile pancake flat CompuTrainer course in 1:26. That isn't a great time but I wasn't trying to make a PB.

With the C'trainer set thinking that I weight 250 lbs it was clear to me that the speed I was doing for the watts was far less than it would be on the open road. But ... that's the point.

Here's a YouTube video of me finishing the UMCA Indiana Cross-State Record for recumbent last March:
