hmm. when i'm trained up, i can generate about 240W for an hour, and
at that point in the year, 100W is basically a "do nothing" state.
world-class Ironman racers and crazy 100 mile time-trial cyclists
generate 250-300W for 3.5-5 hrs. so your number must reflect
an untrained, rather unfit human being or must mean something other
than what i understand it to mean.
