Shawn, i am used to it, know the structure pretty well.. i can check my phone or a slip of paper with the plan mid-run if I need to. typically only thing I need to check is the pace bubble for a given interval

Nice swim. I'm interested to see how the swimming will be helping your running. Seems like you're getting benefits from your pool time. Any triathlons this year?

thanks gordon. i wasn't sure if you were using a galloway technique. i am really trying to break away from it myself, only walking .05 miles for every one. Having done Goofy with the injury, Galloway helped me through it, BUT it really messed with my brain about what my limitations were. Sorry for rambling... keep kicking ass!

I too have a cycleops trainer and love it. mine is the magneto, so middle of the line. At Now Bikes where I ride mondays and some thursdays they have kinetic trainers. they seem harder on the tires to me but I could be wrong. work well though. And I just keep a bike on the trainer for months on end. I wont ride outside for a long time yet. we still have lots of snow on the ground. good luck finding a good deal on a trainer!

Nice work! With a higher stroke count, you may have a faster turnover, so that might be why it feels "more efficient"?
