I’m not tracking 2 or 4 I’m afraid, and I havent done a 20min test in 2019…my score is from a set of intervals with several 2min breaks!
Have I put in enough excuses yet, or are more needed?
My swimming and cycling is super soft at the mo. I took some educated guesses at where they would be this year. I have probably undersold myself slightly there though.
Only until I fill it in then everyone can relax. I can’t access it from work so may be some time, sorry.

Can I just check the 20min max power one. Is that just the figure Garmin gives after a ride for the highest 20min average, rather than an actual 20min FTP test. If that’s the case, is that quoted somewhere without having to look back through rides?

Like I said before, you need w/kg for it to have any meaning.
Yeah … but that makes it all too real.
Only the running one is properly legit, so let’s just use that one

Is that before or after @gingerbongo had his McDonalds
If you Strava you can look at your year’s power curve to get best 20 minutes.
Thanks, I found a personal records section on Garmin desktop that I couldn’t see on my phone. I don’t think I have that on my Strava, I’ve only got the free one.
errr … as i sit munching a big bag of kettlechips i just found in my drawer (as i forgot to bring in any fruit today)!
Going for a dirty lunch today as well!! School xmas FAIR tonight will inevitably see much cake consumed, and then a glass of wine later!
It’s ok, i’ll burn it next Friday (i hope!)

A nicely flattering IM time result too, I’m chuffed! Even with the way under FTP estimate.
