My most recent races were this past weekend in Chattanooga. I have included my heart data for the road race and criterium below: <\/p>\n


2007 River Gorge Road Race<\/strong><\/p>\n

A couple of important notes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
    The arrow labelled "blow-up point" indicates the spot at which I could no longer sustain the pace I had been setting on the climb. Also, this is the spot where Matt Winstead’s teammate, Nate Brown, attacked with 1km to go before the KOM. Note the sharp decline in my heart rate as my legs screamed "no more!"<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Compare my heart rate for the finishing climb where I decided ahead of time to ride at my own pace. Note that there is no sharp increase followed by a decrease indicative of a "blow-up". I was able to finish in 11th place after passing several people towards the end who had blown up.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    2007 River Gorge Criterium<\/strong><\/p>\n

    This crit was a flat and super-FAST race. Still, I felt great for the race and finished well in 7th place.<\/p>\n

    Here is one more race … probably one of the toughest I have done all year. This was the Allanti Classic Road Race where I ended up finishing 5th place after a disappointing sprint in the small breakaway I was in.<\/p>\n


    2007 Allanti Classic Road Race<\/strong><\/p>\n

    This race was extremely hot (in the 90’s) and very humid! Cramping was a factor as only a small percentage of the people who started the race actually finished. I was riding very strong, although I missed the winning solo breakaway by Michael Olheiser (Memphis Motorwerks). I was in a small break with Matt Winstead (Juris) and Dirk Pohlmann (Krystal) and a few other riders. I could only manage 4th in our sprint for second place, giving me 5th place for the race. The actual race was closer to 91 miles even though my speedometer only reports 88.1. Also, we had a time trial later in the day and when you throw in warm-up and cool-down, this was my longest day of riding for the year (about 120 miles).<\/p>\n

    Here are the race statistics:<\/p>\n

    Finally, I have included some summary statistics for the past six months of racing. See the images below with detailed captions.<\/p>\n


    Weekly summary of riding for the past six months. Times are shown in hh:mm<\/em> format. Heart rate zones are indicated below:
    Zone 5 (Red): 171-190+ bpm
    Zone 4 (Orange): 152-170 bpm
    Zone 3 (Green): 133-151 bpm
    Zone 2 (Blue): 115-132 bpm
    Zone 1 (Gray): 0-114 bpm<\/strong><\/p>\n

     
    Weekly amount of climbing (in feet) for the past six months.
    Notice how many times I’ve scaled Mt. Everest on the bike with 289,928 total feet of climbing for the year!<\/strong><\/p>\n
