Backing Off

Scheduled road ride but getting sick. Signs of something wrong all over the place but I failed to admit it early on. List:

  • Thursday woke up groggy, never felt good on the ride. Felt good at work.
  • Friday woke up groggy, never got out of it, felt like shit all day, headache end of day.
  • Saturday felt lousy, RHR at 75. Ride ok but really tough in spots.

Overnight the signs finally made themselves too obvious. Scratchy throat, stuffy nose, congestion in ears, mild head soreness. Resting HR on waking was 77. Obviously I need to take off.

Better to have it happen today than in 2 weeks. Focus in the next 2 weeks is sleeping enough. Of paramount importance.
