How do stack up against you?

We are starting up training soon....some of us have already started. It is a good thing to check your current reality. Bike racing takes fitness, skills and mental abilities. Actually there are several areas in each of these.

How are you stacking up against you.........right now as compared to last year at this time? You may have power meters, speedometers, weight scales, other metrics to compare? How fast can go up the Watershed? Paris Mt.?? How are you handling your favorite group ride?? There are many sources of feedback.

It is not only important to understand if you are ahead or behind last year, it may be most important to look into the details....endurance, force, speed, sprinting, high performance thinking, etc?

It may be obvious that after checking this out, you will be able to spend your time very wisely. Some coaches would describe this as training your limiters.

SO, HOW ARE YOU STACKING UP? YOU AGAINST YOU? NOV 2010 vs. NOV 2009??

Hmmm...last Nov I was mostly running trying to get ready for Kiawah. My ankles and feet hurt every morning when I got out of bed. Comparatively, I'm doing GREAT!!! I'm ready to start an 7 month build, if there is such a thing. :)
