Week 15 Recap

This week was all about recovery from the Shamrock Half. I can't believe I slept close to 22 hours Sunday and Monday combined. I didn't realize my true level of fatigue until I tried running on Wednesday. By Friday I had only logged 2 1/2 hours between running and biking. I attempted a swim session one day but the pool was evacuated for kiddie poop (again) before I even dipped my foot in.

The only excitement of the week was on Monday when I met up with a guy from Final Kick to have my Trek Equinox finally professionally fit. He shortened and lowered the neck to get me in an aggressive position. I also opted to switch out my taint busting saddle for the Adamo, which I'm enjoying.

I took the newly fitted bike on my first outdoor ride of the year on Wednesday. The wind was brutal but the temperature was in the 70s. I'm happy to report I averaged 18 mph without much effort. I'm hoping with a little training I'll be in the 20-21 range in a month. I don't think any of this would have been possible without the great fit I got. Kudos to Dani!
