Training Update

I am coming into the first week of racing feeling stong. I have been gauging my performance on some local hills, and I am crushing my last-years-self regarding speed and perceived effort. The true measure will be on Thursday with the first Buck Hill race.

I have been able to get out for three rides a week thus far, and will increase that to four once we get into some warmer weather. I am fighting some muscle tightness and calf cramping, but it has been subsiding with my taper in effort over the last few rides. I have been pushing some bigger gears and need to remember to include some spinning.

I should have a better idea where I stand once I get through Thursday...
