Difficulties

Hey guys, are any of you doing more than 60 min of cardio when you workout? I find it very hard to do like 90.

For example, yesterday I did a 10k at 1:59-2:00, and then after I got on the bike, but felt tired after 15 or 20 minutes...

Am I just being a wuss, or should I really be doing 90 min?

Any thoughts?

do a lot lower heart rate (130-140) if you are planning on doing 90 minutes, so on the erg for me thats about 2:10 split...

yeah, doing that much time is tough, so you have to really lower the intensity..

the other day i did a 7.5 mile run at a pretty moderate pace (took about 75 minutes) and it wiped me out for over a day.. at first, its gonna be tough. volume is more important than intensity, i believe.
