2 Training Milestones Achieved This Week

Posted in Training Reports

PREPARATION 2.1 TRAINING REPORT (06/09 – 06/15)

HIGHLIGHTS: My training year typically begins at the end of September, rather than at the start of the calendar year in January. This was the 38th week of my season. The first milestone this week was achieved on Saturday. I passed the 4,000 mile mark (4,004.34 miles), with 14 weeks until the end of this season. If I continue to average 105+ miles per week, I should finish the season with over 5,500 miles logged, roughly the same total mileage as last season.

The second milestone this week was a bit more esoteric. Today, I logged my 1,000th workout on my trike. I started training with it back on May 20, 2022, and have logged 16,582.82 miles to date. One of my primary cycling applications, Garmin Connect, has been keeping track of these data points over the past three years.

All indoor cycling sessions were completed with my recumbent trike on a Kinetic by Kurt Road Machine smart trainer + Rouvy application. Both strength workouts were completed.
