Reminder!
Veloers and other esteemed guests,
If you didn't have a chance to do this before, you might want to consider doing it now before we get all wrapped up in the race season. My pal, Dr. Kirk Peck, top dawg at the Creighton University Physical Therapy Department, is putting together another VO2 testing regimen. He wants to test elite bicyclists and compare the results to elite runners.
This isn't the fully aspirated version, but involves a 1.5 mile full-out run, and 3 sub-max tests; indoor cycling, walking and jogging. Bottom line, the results turn out to be eerily similar to the full-blown V02 test.
Some of us did it last year. Fred was off the charts, and others tested well compared to elite runners and age groupings.
If you are interested in doing this, contact me at pduryea at cox dot net. I'll get you hooked up with Kirk. The testing should be coming soon, February or beginning of March.
