I've basically been on track with volume since last week, but Door County with it's wet, cooler weather brought on what appears to be a summer cold. I'm trying not to panic, since it's mild, but I've had to scale back some of my volume. My longest ride in Door County was three and a half hours, 64 miles rather than the 80+ I was hoping for, but really, rest is the most important thing this year. My long broken run worked alright. i went out and did thirty minutes, then a few hours later i did 2 hours on some of my favorite trails in Newport State Park.
Now that I'm back in Oak Park my body is adjusting to the heat/humidity and overstimulation that is my regular life. I hardly slept last night, so had to cancel swimming. Now to arrange a long run during the heat of the morning....17 more days until i leave Oak Park and say goodbye to volume goals.
