Mmmm that was good until the last half. Oh well at least I know where I stand and what it will take to get faster. I haven't even done any long TT efforts in training this year, so it may not take all that much to get faster.
I was spot-on the first half of the race, then I fell apart. The last 6 minutes was just too much for me. I had the right pace the first 12', but didn't have the fitness to hang on. I had a whopping 40w difference between the first and 2nd half (361 vs 341w). Not good.
Compared to last year I was 20w lower and 15 seconds slower. If I had held 360w this year I probably would have been a good 40 seconds faster. Oh well. Looks like it is time to start training more seriously now I guess.
