Et voilà, dernière grosse sortie avant le jour J dans 3 semaines ! Pas évident comme une envie de lacher au bout d'1h30. Finalement jusqu'au bout
TL;DR, CP and FTP are describing the same thing. That is, the phase transition between the heavy and severe exercise domains.
I think where FTP became defined as a 60 minute max effort TT is from confusion of Dr. Coggan's wording in his paper. He suggests an _approximate_ 40 kilometer TT which should last approximately 50-70 minutes.
It's practical to simplify it to 60 minutes as it's a practical test. But FTP is not defined in terms of time, but in effort.
Dr. Coggan was aware of the critical power model and also mentions that in the paper:
"Conceptually, critical power is a power that can be sustained “for a very long time without fatiguing”, and is “an inherent characteristic of the aerobic energy supply system”. Experimentally, an individual’s critical power has been found to be closely related to (although again somewhat higher than) their power at LT as determined via laboratory measurements.
"... functional threshold power is therefore to simply measure their average power during a ~40 km (50-70 min) TT. This highly pragmatic approach is justified by laboratory research showing that the power a cyclist can generate for 60 min correlates very highly with, but is slightly greater than, their power at LT (defined as a 1 mmol/L increase in blood lactate over exercise baseline)."
IE, FTP describes the same phase transition as CP.
I was under the impression that the difference between critical power (CP) and functional threshold power (FTP) is:
CP: power that represents the phase transition between heavy and severe intensity domains. Roughly LT2/VT2/MLSS.
FTP: the maximal power you can sustain for 60 minutes. Estimated as 95% of a max-effort 20 minute TT.
Dr. Andrew Coggan defined FTP in his 2003 paper "Training and racing using a power meter: an introduction". How did he define it?
Not my farest #wingsforlifeworldrun but surly a great one! Cracked two PRs today

7 km waren es, bis mich das Catcher Car einholte. Mein erster richtiger Lauf nach dem Tumor - mit über 310.000 Teilnehmern bin ich den #WingsForLifeWorldRun gelaufen. Und die Startnummer hatte schon die Antwort!

The official time was 1 second slower.. 50’49
Maybe I should stop running by feeling and just control my pace. It really felt like I was running around 6’30/km instead of the actual 5’05

Well, after what seems like an eternity of a Saturday, marathon day has finally arrived.
Weather is cool, dry, bit of a breeze though. I hope it's behind me where I'm not sheltered from it.
Excited and looking forward to it. Last 6 miles might be tough, as a 6mile race joins the route around about the time I'll get there, oh well, I'm going to enjoy it anyhow
A nice 10km course around the ‘Idroscalo’ in Milan with many participants and very warm.
I had covered my watch with tape and was planning to run around 6’45/km by feeling, but to my surprise I suddenly saw the 50’ pacers in front of me.
My clocked time was 50’48. I don’t know the official time yet. No medal this time, but a nice shirt again.
Nice run!
Everyone I meet on my runs gets a smile and a friendly "hello" from me. It's actually quite selfish. It costs me nothing, but every smile I get back gives me strength. Especially this elderly lady who is walking regularly along the Moselle. She seems very bitter. She always gets a special friendly smile and, on Saturdays, a "have a nice weekend." When she smiles and says hello back, it gives me superpowers.

Sunny skies, fresh legs, and 12.4km of peace. Nothing fancy. Just a relaxed morning jog to clear the mind and move the body.
6:57/km : 1h 26m
Let’s keep showing up, one stride at a time.

Happy 1st of May #runnersofmastodon hope y'all having a great and sunny day
Keep rocking! #running #run #workout #longweekend
Morning run views earlier. Power back in Spain. I have to say we were pretty fortunate for timing of the outage, given weather is lovely and people didn’t need heat or A/C, and there were many hours of daylight left so most people got power back on before dark or could get home before dark.

It's been a good month. 325 reasons to be thankful.

Woke up very late as per @sebastianhahn but way too early for me.
Forced myself in my VFF and stepped outside for a very tedious 6k run. Completely out of shape. HR stratospheric.
Went back in bed and slept until cat decided I had enough by clawing me.
It was supposed to be race day for me. Almost glad I had to DNS
Done. The heat was so extreme that I even saw pacemakers calling it. I was aiming for less than 4 hours but…
But check.
Happy #sunday #runnersofmastodon not as long as I wanted but longer than I ever thought I would enjoy running casually on a Sunday. May yours be delightful and relaxed too!

Sunny Sunday miles and a dip in the sea. Water’s up to 60F/16C; shouldn’t get colder than this until ~Christmas.
