Computrainer - Calgary/Canmore 96K (only 74k done)

Nice and flat, Calgary/Canmore workout. L2 with a couple of short bursts to 400 watts for 30 seconds.

I think I have bottomed out the CTL at about 45. Now to start pushing it back up. Interestingly this is almost exactly the same CTL I had this time last year. But that was up from a low of 36 in Dec/06. And TSB was mostly negative for the next 8 months. Currently I'm still sitting on a nicely positive TSB. Which means I should be able to jump CTL up a bit more before TSB goes negative.

TSB being negative means harder perceived workouts. Muscles hurt more going into workouts. Training just becomes much less fun.
