 Finally got a look at the enduro results from last Saturday's race. It appears I made 3rd place at French Creek by only 35 seconds! To think I was standing there for nearly 15 minutes instead of putting in a 6th lap. BBBBBBUT being that I THOUGHT I was about to finish in like 5th place all this is just crap-ol-la and I should just be happy I placed 3rd, and I am.
Got a nice hour spin on the trainer tonight followed by 20+ minutes of cross training mowing and trimmng the lawn. I wore my helmet/jersey/shorts/bike shoes to make it feel like I was doing a real bike work out. I'm kidding of course, but it's a thought.
I've been downing a ton of Airborne the past two days to help ward off illness. Has like 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 mg of Vitamin C and other vitamins. I know the body can only absorb so much, but I don't care. I'm binge drinking it!
I ALWAYS seem to end up sick post race week, and with the cold and rain on Saturday I'm in the danger zone for sure. I've also been filling up on lean proteins, blue berries, spinach, and other antioxidants to try to help out. I also heard that eating 10 pieces of sausage pizza within 5 hours of a work out or race helps too, so I did that Saturday night. O.K., I made that up, but it tasted damn goooooood.
Got my Bikeman.com bib shorts today via UPS. Sweet! They fit so freaking good, and best of all NO CHANCE OF PLUMBER BUTT!! Thanks Al! Can't wait to rock these at the 12 Hours of Lodi Farms.
Also got some brake pads ordered up. The El Santo is in a sorry state right now. All cleaned up, but my pads are screwed and I think the calipers are bit frozen up from the mud/no pad issues. Checking the M.A.S.S. message boards, it doesn't seem like I'm the only one that's having issues. I'm sure I'll get it figured out.
Oh well, glad to be back in the saddle and looking foward to some miles this week.
Later.
