A Week In The Life, 1995

This is a snapshot week from Maura's 1995 training log.  This week is typical during the early-to-mid part of the racing season.  I cannot imagine doing these kind of miles back then and certainly not now.  Back in 1995, I think I was putting in about 150 a week and Maura doing 250 on a random week.  This week from April 3rd-9th was a 260 mile-week.  The next several weeks were at 245, 122, 204, 319, 212, 245 miles per week!  If I remember right, the intent is to build up the miles and most of these were racing miles.  The 319 was a monster week at the stage race in Bisbee, Arizona and her average speed for that week was 19.4 mph!  For anyone who knew her, when she set out to go after a goal, she certainly does not mess around.
