Level 7 12 pushupsx4
25 minutes
15 October (244 cal)

I'm still paranoid about getting that cold going around, so I ramped down the intensity again. I stayed within 105-107 rpm the entire ride, except for cool down, when I increased to 111-113. I've discovered that if I stay at 85% or above of my maximum heart rate for any length of time, it overtaxes me and probably leads to over-training and lessened resistance to colds. So today I kept it to 75% or under except for very brief periods on the steepest hills.

I'll take another vitamin c packet and hope for the best...luckily, no social engagements tonight...
