Knights of Sufferlandria Team

I’ve been a sprinter for every test since Grunter was a baby. Yesterday though, ATTACKER!!!

I’ve got a really good NM (never have too much trouble getting well over a kilowatt)
I PR’d my AC (changed tactics this time)
My MAP (lowest it’s ever been so I guess that’s a PR too :stuck_out_tongue: ) sucked yak balls relative to FTP.

I oddly didn’t hate FF. First I’ve done it in nearly 2 years but I was more mentally prepped for this one and was able to use the MTP to manage the efforts. I’m not completely opposed to doing it again. :man_shrugging:t3:

I didn’t hate it much. I went out of the gate a little hard on the final minute effor and had to hold on. Feel like i had more to give on the sprints. Seems like that’s more about finding the right gearing.

Learned a lot for sure.

Exactly the same on my last FF and turned me into an Attacker, Sir @Glen.Coutts.

Always decent NM, big gain in AC from the fall, MAP/FTP ay best consistent.

Birds of a feather i guess.

Man I enjoy this workout so much! Definitely a new favorite. Feels a little subversive, too. Like the minions are quietly sticking it to the wahoominati man.

Signed up, not going to be able to do all the stages as it’s a bit too late in the year for me this year but that doesn’t mean I cant support it and do a couple of stages here and there. Best of luck to everyone going for the full thing

Will we ever get to hear the story of how you ended up possessing a goat suit?

:thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

The posessing it isn’t much if a story. Its more of WHY I possess it. There was a Suf related bet. I lost. My punishment was to ride up an actual volcano wearing it. I can’t remember what the bet was for. I’ll ask Sir Michael, he was involved.

Umm, I beg to differ. It’s a…goat suit.

Selective memory or true forgetfulness? I’m pretty sure I’d remember the details of why I had to ride my happy a$$ up a volcano in a goat suit! Then again my happy a$$ ain’t riding up a volcano period!

It would likely be up Mount Eden, or One Tree Hill, or Mount Wellington. This is Mount Eden:
