Only one more day on the trainer before I head back to Vermont to be reunited with my cycling shoes! :-) This workout wasn't quite as easy as it was supposed to be. I was tired before I even started. My legs felt like lead and my left quad was a bit tender. I also noticed my HR was higher than normal again, so I know I didn't really have it today. Sleep has been somewhat elusive the last few nights and I'm sure that had a lot to do with how I felt today. I had to force the pace today, which I know was a mistake. I should have been happy to take whatever came as this is a recovery week. I did a little extra stretching afterwards and feel better for having done it. I am optimistic that a good night's sleep or an ourdoor ride will address this little issue.
Nice ride Scott.

Scott - I enjoy your updates! Do make sure to get that sleep. I personally can vouch for the necessity of sleep.

Thanks Jen and Dalila!! @Dalila, it really wasn't that tough. I didn't mean to overstate it. When you are used to really good rides, anything less seems a disappointment. There was a time when this would have been a good one! :-) @Jen, You are already riding some big miles (70+). You could easily manage a century! Go for it. :-)

Nice "recovery" spin, Scott. I'm a lot like you, in that my recovery rides and easy spinning rides never end up being that way. (Then I pay for it later.) Oh, well. It is what it is, right? :) When you're reunited with your shoes, tell them "hello" for me.
