Hi Actifitters,

after the doctor gave me the go-ahead yesterday following my tick vaccination, provided I feel well, I immediately did my next pedal strokes in Zwift yesterday.

It was super cool again and I'm already looking forward to the next workouts in the virtual world.

Currently, the "Tour de Zwift" is running on Zwift, a virtual multi-day event that is certainly based on the Tour de France (at least in name).

Several races start each day, allowing you to compete live against other Zwift users. In my race, there were 45 other riders, and I finished in 31st place out of 46.

I'm more than satisfied with this result, as my only goal was to finish the race. More than 31st place wouldn't have been possible with my current fitness level. My heart rate shot up to 183 on the final straight.

Here are some Stats:

Duration - 0:33:20
Distance - 17.30 km
Elevation gain - 170 m
Average speed - 31.1 km/h
Maximum speed - 70.2 km/h
Average power output - 220 watts
Maximum power output - 464 watts
Average heart rate - 154 bpm
Maximum heart rate - 183 bpm
Average cadence - 90
Maximum cadence - 115

Since I still have a few things to do, I don't yet know how much time I'll have for training today. However, I'd like to complete at least one route or event in the virtual world today.
