Ride time: 1hr 10 minutes (15 short of the scheduled ride time) @ 145 bpm.
Stretching, 100 sit-ups.
Legs felt tired, but not completely fried.
Food: oatmeal, coffee, PBJ on whole wheat, V8 and Clif Shot recovery drink. And LOTS of water.
My legs were pretty smoked from yesterday, I have to admit. I was able to warm up for ten minutes, do a short, high-cadence burst in my easiest gear and settle in for about an hour at 145 BPM.
It was hard to find a good cadence/gear combination that put me in the HR range I wanted. I was either just below 138, or at 155, which I couldn't sustain with legs like the ones I had today. At one hour ten, I called it quits. My legs were simply done.
A bit more about yesterday: I got home and went to bed at 10 sharp. I turned on a humidifier for some white noise and slept until 8 this morning and felt much better. My legs weren't nearly as sore as they had been yesterday, but I could tell right away this morning that there wasn't much in them.
