Friday Already?

Don't forget to check out the XC and Short Track videos from Naitonals on cylcingdirt... I'm not really in them since I was riding just outside the top group that Colt usually films like usual, but they're still great videos.

Not sure how easy / rest weeks go by so fast. Working I guess... After 3 days off I did a pretty nice ride through Coto de Caza (home of the real desparate housewives) last night. Good hilly route without much traffic.

Plan was to do a mini rest week - 4-5 days and then train hard on the weekend. With only 3 hrs on the bike so far my delima now is whether to keep it going and ride this evening - or rest yet again and go watch the big surf that's pumping right now... What tough choices.

Sunday Beth is racing the Pacific Coast Triathlon which will be awesome to watch. It does mean missing the group ride though. The weather is really warm right now too, so mountain biking won't be much fun this weekend. So I need some creative ideas for good training - high intensity on Saturday and a good tempo / hill endurance ride Sunday. Any ideas??

  1. don't forget the 'do-do' principle. 'if you don't rest and recover after the training you do do, then you will be in deep do-do.'
