Buzzing
Crap this week has flown by. I seriously could have posted twice as much as I did with all the stuff going on. The big event for me this week: I RODE MY BIKE Thursday. It has been almost two months. Wow. In fact I still had my aero drink bottle on it with Gatorade sloshing around from the Ironman. Gross.
In fact it wasn't just a bike ride, it was a brick. I also did a 2 mile run off the one hour bike.
I didn't get a lot of distance but the saddle time was good. Man my legs were not used to being back on a bike. Its took me several minutes to get my cadence up over 90 and I stayed in the Big Ring /Base +2, +3, +4 almost the whole time. (Base is the middle gear of a rear 9 speed cassette, so Base +4 is the "granny gear").
Whether it is because I have no concept of what an easy workout is or I am just so new at being back on a program or it's a condition of my Rhabdo., I am smoked the day after a workout. My whole body is just in agony and I am unable to apply myself correctly to another practice. My hope is that this is just 'starting up again' stuff and will go away but if it is a part of my Rhabdo., then I will learn to deal with my new reality.
Be well my fine friends and have a great training weekend.

Hope it's just the starting up feeling. Either way, good to hear you're back to doing some workouts. I don't even want to think about what may have been growing in that aero bottle, though!
My husband has done that with his camelback--Yuck! Glad to see you getting back in the saddle.
Glad you are back in the saddle! Rest up and don't feel you have to do any more than you are doing!
Enjoy the saddle!
And the front wind!
I'm happy your back to fun things like you say!
Don't start to fast but run a mile for me: I sprained my ankle badly and got an avulsion fracture.
I just need to be patient, but I'm missing the best weather for running in Montreal, QC...
Go, go, go
But, the real question is did you accidentally take a drink? :)
A bit belated I know - but congrats Comms. Wonderful to hear that you are getting back into it again.
