Odometer 14B: 410.0mi

Z4-Z5 finish.  Average/max heart rate = 157/173

As usual, I started too late, so I had to abbreviate the workout, and turned this into a 6km time trial - and a personal best at this distance (although there isn't much to compare this to).  I don't usual erg this distance, and I felt surprisingly good, so it was productive in terms of raw energy kicked out.

Probably won't burn the lard I wanted to burn, but at least it's something different and certainly better than a Do Nothing But Eat day, which this was in danger of becoming.  I missed out yesterday, which would've been a good day, and the rain this morning might've made this morning promising for a run, but no matter.  Better something than nothing, and this ends up being a strength workout for as hard as I went.
