I was looking at the stats for monday and thursday’s ascents of the alp. it’s quite interesting reading.
| 7.4 miles | Time | Av Speed | Max Speed | Calories | Av HR | Max HR |
| Monday | 60.35 | 7.4mph | 18.2mph | 882cal | 182bpm | 191bpm |
| Thursday | 49.11 | 9.2mph | 23mph | 690cal | 180bpm | 198bpm |
The height gain on the alp was 3330 feet.
And ascent versus descent on croix de fer:
| 18.6 miles | Time | Av Speed | Max Speed | Calories | Height gain |
| Ascent | 1.53.08 | 9.9mph | 31.mph | 1397cal | 4856 ft |
| Descent | 51.11 | 21.5 | 60mph | 367 cal |
in comparison, this morning i went out with a few chums on quite a hilly ride. we did around 40 miles with some horrible little climbs. my heartrate stayed below 190bpm and the total climbing was 2800 feet.
here’s a graph from alpe d’huez. the elevation is hilarious.
