i want to find out what power i could do for a 40km/1 hour time trial, without actually doing one.
i like doing an 8 mile time trial, which takes me about 20minutes.(this TT is very simular to a TT at a stage race that i am peaking for in july. so i like doing this TT every 2 or 4 weeks for practice. there is 400ft of climbing total, and the finish line is 60ft above the start.)
is there a formula for determining 1 hour power from this 20minute time trial?
the reason i don't want to do the full 40km is that such an effort is so hard on my body, especially at this time of year.
i am looking to find my 1 hour power so i can set up zones.
today i did the 20minute time trial with an average watts of 307.
i am thinking that my 1 hour power would be 290watts.
does this sound right?
