I decided to make today a tempo day, again, even though Tuesday had also been one. For some reason, I just couldn't commit to a super hard effort. I did the entire warmup like I should have, but then for the test I found an easy-ish gear and kept my cadence at 102 RPM. I was as consistent as I think I could've been, and this might have been the first time my average watts actually went UP as I was getting closer to the end. One of my goals for the year was to do each one better than the previous, and I did not hit that goal this week. But I rode well and made each day have a purpose.
