Day 204

Today I went in for another VO2max test.  Since my last test 2 months ago, my results improved by about 16%!  My peak power only went up slightly, which doesn't surprise me due to the lack of any training above a low intensity.  In any case, it was very motivating to see such an improvement in my VO2 score, and kind of fun at the same time.  When I test my threshold on the road, I have to pay attention to safety (cars, pot holes, etc) and can't really bury myself like I can in the lab.  Still, I always leave thinking I could have held on for a little longer, even though my legs disagreed with me at the time.  "Shut up legs!"
