again, before getting an entire thread about this, my numbers:
1st half - AP 354w / NP 357w @ 24.9mph
2nd half - AP 328w / NP 330w @ 27.9mph
No. It is course dependent. Assuming this was an out and back you were either going uphill on the outbound leg or into the wind which means that you spent more time at 357w then you did at 328w. How long was this course?
