So, I rode my second time trial yesterday, and I recorded dramatic improvements. The improvements were so drastic that I wonder if I did something wrong. Or, is there an explanation I am missing.

FACTS
I rode the same 2 1/2 mile course for both TTs. I know that 3 miles is the ideal, but, for some reason that I can't remember, I had to do 2.5. The only changes: new carbon sole shoes, and a new wheel set. Here are the results

MARCH 29, 2010
Miles           Time            Avg HR               Max HR          Avg MPH    
         Wind
2.5                     9.09                    177                             
186                     16.45         N 7 MPH

MAY 13, 2010
Miles            Time            Avg HR              Max HR           Avg MPH   
        Wind
2.5                     7.12.9          180                             192     
                20.62       NE 7 MPH

I crushed yesterdays TT compared to the March TT. I rode almost 2 minutes faster, and over 4 MPH faster. My Avg HR increased 3 BPM and my max HR increased the same. Would the new shoes, wheel set and increased HR account for such a massive gain?

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy
