I was glued staring at my computer screen. I couldn't believe what was going on in France. Should I be in Paris I would surely be at
Bataclan that day attending a concert of one of my favorite band,
Eagles of Death Metal. So much barbary in the world these days. Sport is a great outlet in those crazy moments.
Bike
After a hard slept night, on my morning schedule was a long ride on the trainer :
TrainerRoad Eclipse. Consisting of a warm-up followed by 3 long 20-minute intervals at sweet spot. The last one was mentally hard, 20 minutes pass so slowly after you already spent a previous 40 minutes close to your FTP. Today I was commited, dedicating my ride to victim's families. My pain was nothing compared to theirs. I toughened up and finished following on-screen form instructions. Let me tell you one thing; focusing on form after a long time in the saddle and fatigued legs is hard as hell... but the reward is big once build season kicks in.
