Yesterday was a rest day for me, but the start of a couple new month-long Peloton challenges I’m participating in … so, I’ll be playing catch-up a little this first week in March.
The first challenge is an official Peloton challenge. Every month, you can earn badges for hitting mileage increments (50 miles for bronze, 100 miles for silver, 150 miles for gold), number of days working out (5 for bronze, 10 for silver, 15 for gold) and, this month, they’ve added an output challenge as well. The Amplify Output Challenge requires you to hit a total of 3,000kj during the month of March – every cycling, running and bootcamp class adds to your total. I haven’t had any trouble hitting the mileage and workout days challenges, and don’t expect to have trouble hitting this one either – my output for February was 5,715kj – but it’s still fun tracking progress on the challenges and I’m thinking of creating my own personal Amplify Output goal of 7,000.
The second challenge is between two Facebook groups. There are different “tribes” of riders, based on shared interests, favorite rider, etc. The SweaxySwarm and the XXL Tribe are competing in a “minute challenge” this month – meaning that every minute you spend in a class counts toward the group total. Guess which group I’m in and which group Ruben is in?

Workout of the Day
So you know how I started that Power Zone training program? Well I’ve been avoiding it because the next ride was a 45 minute ride and it’s tough to convince myself to take a 45 minute class. I usually opt for 20-30 minute classes and do some “just ride” extra credit miles afterwards. I took a break from being a big baby about it today and I’m glad I did.
This 45-minute low impact ride I was so scared to take turned out to be a zone 1-2 recovery ride. It was great. It focused on drills to teach me how to engage certain muscles and taught me some great warm-up moves for more intense rides.
