I did a 90-minute class today and it was supposed to be an easy day. I suppose from the power perspective it was not awful -- we didn't go over high zone 3 (OK, I ventured into low 4 for one minute) -- but there was a lot of steady state work. Not sure if I'm improving and my power levels have risen, but I felt almost comfortable doing three sets of rollers that ranged from 9 to 12 minutes and three sets of steady state efforts. Kate, who taught this class, polled us regarding RPE after the steady state efforts and people reported 7.5-8.5 efforts. During the first one, I was at 6.5 and the last one, the one that I finished in low zone 4, was about 7.5. It was work, but very tolerable work. It felt like I could have done more. Now, it's on to maintenance and tapering before Solvang, which is just four days away.
