Bounceback Shutdown

Well, that was short lived. Started to feel the crud coming back after the repeats on Tuesday. Apparently a 75 mile hilly ride doesn't really help fight a cold. Had a great ride though. NS Rob came along for about 56 miles before heading back to pick up his little girl.

Immediately upon my return home, I started getting chills. I spent last night with cold sweats. I'm taking that as a sign that I need to back off again. If I take today and tomorrow off, hopefully I'll feel up to my long run on Saturday. Next week is a recovery week so that should help.

Yesterday's ride definitely showed me I've got a long way to go. I can't imagine having to run yesterday. Hopefully it was the cold holding me back.

Carry on.
