5x2' (with 2' rest). Starting up again a regimen of intervals is not so pleasant in the moment. Glad I pushed through.

2 hours with one of my training partners. It was supposed to be 2:30 but he was running late. Still, we had a nice chat and a good ride and both concluded this weekend of racing will be fun, because it will get our minds off of certain aspects in each of our personal lives that suck.

90m on the trainer with an hour of tempo with sprints every 3m to 200% or higher. Best workout of 2012 so far.

I hate riding in the afternoon. I always feel like sh*t. Intervals fail today.

Got a great check-up from doc today, says I can get on trainer as soon as clavicle, back, and pelvis pain allows. No surgery required. Walked around the house for a couple of hours for the first time without a crutch and was able to do some laundry, bathroom cleaning, etc. Not bad only five days after 4 fractures. TSS = 342.

Chest workout yesterday.
Hour on spin bike last night.
20 minute warmup followed by 1 minute on (:45s at 130-140 rpm, :15s at 160-170 rpm) and 1 minute off (50 rpm) - tension always the same. Repeat for 20 minutes. Then 15 minutes at what I would call SST. % minute cooldown and fall over.
Up this morning, 1:05 at steady pace (HRM not working but probably Z2), 3/4 the way through Ab RipperX before my gut said no more.
5 mile run at lunch.

Also rest. So much ice cream. All of it. And probably a bushel of beef.
Yesterday was 2hrs z2.
Down to 163lbs. 6lbs lighter than the summer's race weight. Aiming for 160. *guitar solo*
