What are you training for? That looks like a lot of work for not much gain, i.e. it's mainly steady state stuff that won't make you faster.

Training to be able to attack the road with a bit more vigour, really that's it. I enjoyed it more when I could smash it about a bit faster. I know the speed with which I used to be able to climb Ide, for example, and it's untouchable to me right now.
Dammit
I've got very slow, which I don't like.
When I was a bit quicker I was doing something that looked roughly like this:
Monday - rest
Tuesday - 3 minute intervals
Wednesday - 2 hours Z2
Thursday - 2x20
Friday - 2 hours z2
Saturday - rest
Sunday - 4 hours z2
Does that look reasonable to go back to over winter to try to build a bit of fitness and pace for when the days get longer?
