Howdy folks,

Well, it’s Friday. I know a lot of you are pretty glad for that.

Seems like it’s been a tough week all-round.

Here’s what we did this week…

Monday – Recovery Spin after a pretty hard weekend.

Tuesday – We call it 2×20 Tuesday for a reason, eh? 

Wednesday – More than you ever wanted to read about clipping and unclipping.

Thursday – Some pretty spirited running work

That takes us to today, and darnit… I think most of ya’all probably need to back off the gas a little bit.

So, hey…

Why not do that?

Nothing super brutal or intense or grueling today, instead go for a…

1.5 – 2 Hour Moderate Ride –

Get on your bike.

Go ride for 2 hours.

No hard efforts, but do throw in a couple of moderate ones. By moderate, I mean just that. You can sprint for the town line, but you should be laughing while you do it.

You’re not doing a recovery spin, so you need to put a little bit of gas into the pedals… just don’t go out and kill yourself.

Check out the view, smell the flowers, just do it while you’re putting a little bit of effort into the pedals.

1 notch above a recovery ride.

Have Fun!
