Tuesday: 80′ L4 1x

It was so nice getting back in my fluid that I stayed out extra long. I did over 18km in the session including warmup and cool down.

The plan was to do an L4 session, adapted for OTW

L4 format
10′ sections
- 4′ at 16 spm
- 3′ at 18 spm
- 2′ at 20 spm
- 1′ at 22 spm
Take 1′ breaks when I needed to turn, roughly every 14 minutes or so.
No HR limit
No target pace or power to just set a marker for future sessions.

A few fun charts. The only insights I got from this was a gradual reduction of effective length as I got more tired. This was caused by my wash getting bigger.
