60 mile ride day

rode out to the lighthouse today. nice perfect weather~great company
#shiv mafia out and about!!!

this ride was to go long with 2x10 min intervals in middle of ride at race pace.
so on the strip to lighthouse we took off for the first interval i held 20mph and then recovery pretty quick and stopped at end of ride. took some pictures and restocked our hydration systems.
on way back to main road we did next interval and this time i held 21 mph for 10 minutes but at last part my HR monitor and watch told me to ease up bc my HR went to high....104% to much ;-( oopsie. body and legs felt good but it was pretty hot.

Avg speed 18.3
avg HR overall 140
Max HR 200 total training effect 3.9 (perfect right where i want to be on long hot rides)

continued with nutrition plan and HR plan is working effectively.
Endurolytes q 1 hour for 2 tabs
and prime gatoraid prior to start of workout and
then gu roctane q 1 hour. no hunger pains or feelings of despair.

did pack a g2 purple gatoraid on way down and on way back stopped at gas station and got a nice cold blue gatoraid. enjoyed the extra sugar on way back. adequate hydration and nutrition for this ride. all was great!
