Junk Miles

Last night I forced myself to climb on the bike for an endurance workout. Zone 2 stuff. I was pretty tired to start with so it took some extra time to get my HR up into the 140s. My perceived exertion was about right but the HR dropped back down to 130s, that's zone 1 for me. I kept going. After, 1:30hrs the HR dropped down below 100... not good. I tried to remotivate myself but I wasn't feeling it. So I envoked the "no Junk Miles" clause and got off the bike at 1:40. I took my shower and by 9:00 was passed out on the bed. I have to be happy with three hours and 40min of riding for the day. Tonight will be some speed work.
