Long Day

So I managed my longest ride on the Power Cranks. Maybe it was a bit longer than I should have. I put on a tad under 60 miles, by the end I was spent. It seems to be for me right now, that there is a 2 to 3 type ratio for their use. Meaning for ever 2 hours, it feels like three hours.
The last 10 miles were a chore, sitting was difficult, I needed to stand to grab the momentum for my pedaling, and I was dropped.

Then something funny happened. As I transitioned to my run, all the fuzziness was lost, and I ran a relaxed, but strong just below race pace. I have my seasons last race, next weekend, I'm resting a lot this week in my taper, and looking forward to see what comes from my splits. It will be my first race since using the PC's.
