After Sunday’s hill training my legs are sore, can’t deny that but won’t keep me from having some fun either!
In my wifes recovery weeks I try to get some activity in where I can. Yesterday I could only cycle (home => work => home => social worker => home) so got 38km and I already noticed my legs were no longer used to the hill repeats. This morning was not much better, so I decided to go for an unpaved recovery run after cycling to and from work in order to increase the blood circulation and aid recovery.
Felt good being outside today, while there was quite some fog in the early morning it was a nice temperature. Which makes it ideal for just distracting yourself for a while.
The pain in the legs feels so nice (alive!) that I plan to go another hill session later this week (once the legs have recovered a bit) setting last weekends run as a benchmark to start building from again to get a little fitter again.
For now a quick shower, going to eat a meal with some extra protein before I have to get back to my appointments. Wishing you a great day!
