Sufferfest "The Hunted" available now!

I'm downloading it now, and I'll watch it tomorrow morning. A great deal for $10.99! Go to www.thesufferfest.com.

Here's the rundown of the workout:
The Workout
Where the other 'fest videos have short, nasty and high power intervals, The Hunted is something else all together. Focused on longer, less intense efforts, it gives you a solid threshold workout that still manages to drain you of everything you've got. Here's what happens:
6:30 warm-up: Gradually up the pace, over the intro, footage from a group ride in California, and some pack riding in the Tour de Suisse.
:30 attack: A violent effort to get away from the complacent peloton.
5:00 solo-breakaway tempo riding: You'll ride at effort level 7/10 with Marco Pinotti as he plows through the TT course of the Tour of Romandie.
20:00 climb: Caught by the group, you'll start a long, difficult climb in the group, then in a small breakway and ultimately alone as you ride with Robert Gesink over the queen stage in the Tour de Suisse. Efforts range from 7/10 to 8.5/10.
4:00 downhill: This isn't a time to rest...especially when you're solo trying to hold off the chasers! You wouldn't get to take it easy in a race, so I don't want to hear any whining. You'll take the resistance off but you'll ramp that cadence up to 115+ to train some fast pedaling technique.
5:00 small group: Caught by three other riders, you'll swap off the front in a small breakaway as you hurtle toward the finish line, while the pack looms behind. Effort of 6.5 to 7/10.
5:00 inverse intervals: As you're the sort who goes for the big glory, you'll attempt to attack and shed your breakaway companions. You'll do :50 tempo, then :10 attack, then :40 tempo/:20 attack, :30 tempo/:30 attack, :20 tempo/:40 attack, :10 tempo/:50 attack
?: It wouldn't be the 'fest if there wasn't a small (small) sting in the tail now, would it?
4:00 warm-down
