Ugine : Albertville : Long Intervals

Back to our favourite bike path between Ugine and Annecy for some long intervals. 6,5,4,3,2,1 minutes on, 1 minute jog between efforts. The pace in the 3:20s/km, slightly quicker in the last two efforts. The legs very heavy. Hard not to be distracted along the way looking for wild strawberries, trying to work out who is growing what in the many house/market gardens and greeting the many bike riders out there enjoying the great weather. Shower after in the old train station, nice even if it was cold water.
Similar session my friends were scheduled to do today at Stromlo back in Canberra
Yesterday the session a 3km hard tempo on the Tour time trial course between 15 and 12 km, included one substantial ascent. Managed a second run while watching the Tour along the course and some quiet lanes along the river Doubs.

In between a 2 hour drive to Les Rousses du Lac for a swim at 9pm and a car sleep in a secret spot. No roughing it tonight, a bed in Albertville.
