Under 3 min is probably where I'm at my best.
I don’t need 30-second power, seeing as how I will never ride a crit again and I never had a sprint to begin with.
There are plenty of places here where I can do threshold intervals. Today was 7 on, 3 off because a 10 min base is easy on the blood-deprived brain. I guess if you’re really fast it’s like I used to tell the staff at the gym when they asked how my workout was: “This facility can no longer contain my immense fitness.”
