This morning I did an easy recovery ride. I started at the equestrian park in Draper and rode up Clarks and then down ghost. I took it pretty easy, but did put it in a harder gear then usual(2,5) for the climb up ghost. I didn't make it up too fast(~18 min), but my hope is by riding in the tougher gears I'll strengthen my legs. I tried to stay in my seat, but had to stand a couple times to get up some steeper stuff.
It was a little cooler this morning. I felt a little saddle sore, and my legs were a little sore I noticed when I started.
On the way down I rip a hole in my tire too big for Stan's to seal, so I ended up having to walk down. I will have to get another tire today and get it on. I am planning to ride the Draper race on Monday so I hope to take it easy the next couple days. I will be at my fathers cabin most of the weekend so I won't have much of a chance to ride. I hope to get in some swimming and running though.

This is a cool journal. I think I'll start one... My first entry would read: "woke up tired this morning and decided my body needed to 'recover' some more. Problem: I've been saying that for the last 5 mornings..."
ReplyDeleteI feel like that a lot also.
