And this is the response to all those who said “The Suffering” has been toned down.
The fact that I’m so looking forward to this mean that I need to seek help?

We all need to seek help, it is only a question of how much.

As a time trialist with a MAP weakness, the amount of yellow I saw was terrifying. This will be my 7th tour and it’s looking like it’ll be one of the toughest.

It’s adjusted after you add the plan to your Calendar. Focused looks just about doable!

Thanks did UAE just now. I also floated down with low cadence when the power was really
It was easier than trying to hit the number.
Will see if I can do the tour

By the time “the best thing in the world” comes around, we’ll all be thinking "this is the worst thing in the world… and it’ll take all our Mental Toughness to not be thinking about the next (final) day…

@Coach.Mac.C I just deleted and reapplied the focussed TOS route. SUF Idol still shows adjustedFTP at 1%. I assume you want that to 100%

7th tour and with all that yellow, it’s going to be a doozy. Just when I think they can’t possibly get any more challenging, they do. Ah well, bib designed, registration fee paid, fundraising in progress, it’ll all be fine.

You will be amazing, stay within your limits alway, as we know its the cumulative effect of the 7 days not any one stage.
The way to deal with cumulative overload: EAT, SLEEP, SUFFER, REPEAT!

I got through Norway in Erg at 100%. I do know that 30min afterwards I was begging my wife to bring me a drink as I could still not get up off the floor or crawl to the kitchen.

@Diana I feel like there’s a math joke in the center of your bib, but I’m not getting it. Can you explain?

This is sorted now. The reduced intensities don’t appear in the ‘Details’ when previewing the plan, but once you add the plan to your Calendar the reduced intensities populate. If you delete the plan you’ve applied and add it again you should see the same 
The route announcement kind of scared me off, specially Day1,2 & 7 - so i decided to sign on for it.
First time, tryin on nuclear and keep on going as long as i can.
Looking forward to some exiting time and suffering.

Dame @Diana’s bib reminds me of the in- and out-of-phase flow formula’s back in uni. Didn’t really get it then, definitely not getting it now…
+1 for the design though

I mean, I’m assuming the minions have already called all our bosses and explained why we won’t be available for work for a week after that…
