One year ago I broke my own personal record on RollerSafe going 10 km at 17 km/h in average speed. Today I broke that record again going 17,7 km at 17 km/h but this time on slow wheels that are 3-4 km/h slower than the 2″ wheels I used last year. This is a really great improvement!

Even considered my shin is swollen and I trained without gloves causing blisters on both my hands.

In 16 out of 18 one kilometre intervals the speed was above 20 km/h. Best interval was 18.4 km/h. Best one kilometre interval vis-a-vis heart rate was 180 bpm. First time for a while that my average heart rate was above 170 bpm with 44% in zone 5 and 50% in zone 4. 16 of 18 one kilometre intervals was also above 16 km/h in average speed.

In April I trained 344 km going out almost every day doing shorter distances. This month I have done 205 km so far but increasing again to longer distances mostly every second day. I hope to be able to keep up training over the summer period. Not getting married this year in June. 😉
