Recovery Day

I feel great! I've always been able to recover quickly, but I haven't had any soreness or other issues which is usually what happens. I went to bed early sunday night and got plenty of sleep so I wasn't even tired on monday. My butt was a little rough which I didn't notice until I did a recovery ride on the trainer last night, but that will heal fast. I do say that for me, using a supplement such as Sport Legs (which is what I used) or enduralytes from Hammer prod. is definitely the way to go. I took 4 at the beginning as per the bottle instructions and then 3 every hour after(roughly every 25 miles was what I looked for). I did experience some minor cramping in the top in my thighs (quads?) at about the 58 mile mark, but I just kept my effort steady and shifted to an easier gear and pedaled through it. Anyway, for a long ride, I think the stuff is worth it.

I plan on doing a ride tonight if it doesn't get too cold. We'll see what happens.
