My training program called for an hour to one and a half hour outdoor ride (this is supposed to be once a week. usually I substitute x country skiing for it). So, I dutifully got on the trainer and figured I would watch the news, since it was supposed to be an easy zone 2 ride.
Ugh. This was the longest I've spent on the trainer in the 3 years I've had it. Most of the other days the plan has me doing drills and changing up things for no more than a half hour, plus weights or core stuff. By the end of the hour, my butt was killing me and I am pretty sure I have a saddle sore developing.
The wind is blowing at like 30 mph, there's ice all over the sides of the road, and the temperature is not going over 30 for the next 2 days. There's not enough snow left to ski or snowshoe and what's there is all ice, so the trainer it is...
