"Test Day Tomorrow"

And I don't feel ready.  Thirty minutes of self torture!  Makes me nauseous just thinking about it.
I have at least decided how I'm gonna approach it.  I definitely want to spend more time in the aero bars, since this is the ultimate test of improvement for me.  I figure while I'm in a race (depending on hilliness), I will spent anywhere form 60 to 80 percent of my time there, and as such I should shoot for the same while training.  I will also try for that in my test, and I think the best way to accomplish  that is with a pyramid, similar to how I've been doing my tempo rides.  That will result in sitting up for only 7 of the 30 minutes.  Let the pain begin!!

Swim, 1250 metres, weights.

…and lots of brilliant 'test' words from others

…for the old

Our society must make it right and possible for old people not to fear the young or be deserted by them, for the test of a civilization is the way that it cares for its helpless members."---Pearl S Buck

…for the young

The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children."---Dietrich Bonhoeffer

…for all of us

Every formula of every religion has in this age of reason, to submit to the acid test of reason and universal assent."---Mohandas Gandhi

…and the ultimate test

"Here is a test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: If you're alive, it isn't."---Richard Bach
