CompuTrainer Class: Force and Power III

As part of the second week of the force and power series, today called for something completely different than last week: sprints today vs. hills last week.

No HR data today. I charged my Garmin Sunday until it said BATTERY CHARGING COMPLETE, I turned it on today, and the battery died. I did record the times on my watch, so at least today and Thursday will line up.

Except for the 5^th sprint, I increased my watts for each one (and I'm guessing I was close if not to 664 on that 5^th one). I am getting closer to 700 and maybe will hit it on Thursday!

During work, I did 10x30sec curl and front delt, then I took a nice walk at lunch, exploring the newly paved sidewalk and mulched (well, chipped) path across the street.
