TheEd,
Today's 85km MTB marathon was spoiled by bad weather, organisers called off after horizontal rain and 50mph gusts! managed 50km instead of the 85km planned - there 2km of climb, three heavy climbs and some gnarly descents. 4.5 hrs in the saddle, gd workout and experience of the Great Yorkshire Dales.
Had a little knee prob's, bit like ITB issues. Still sore from some gym work last week. planning easy tomorrow maybe a swim or paddle in sea. 10km race Friday, seeing as got the 5x1km session in on Friday and today's endurance what say you on rest of week? Waddle on Tues, easy/med on Wed, thurs rest?
Catchup soon,
D
