Fustration with technology but have to keep it in perspective...

Well, couldnt afford a power meter as of yet so I am working with HR, I did a Hr test today (Cyclo Spin Class #5) well my average for top of Z4 is 173bpm. I am starting a training plan this was the first day of it. I got my new meter (trek incite ACH) and to be honest I dont like it much. Its not so much the meter, it does what its designed to do but it lacks highest hr as well as average and you have to scroll through the screens to get from cadence to HR. I was going to get a garmin and I will eventually but for now will just make due.

I do see that I need to realize that this is just a tool not the gospel so to speak. And if I dont realize this it will hinder my training I think and make me to fustrated and that is a bad thing for anyone trying to make gains.

Only 6 weeks left till the Battenkill Roubaix and I want to be ready for it, my goal is to finish in the front half of the race (my goal is to alway do the best I can and win) that will be the best finish in a regular race, and man is it a tough course from what I have seen and heard.

My nutrition is going well, I have learned some really good eating habits and stick to them also allowing myself an indulgance from time to time. I am down to 193 pounds and really am not trying to lose weight,which I know I will as the season progresses. Well, look out Battenkill NY, I am coming and there is no stopping me....
