Takin' it easy

I kicked off my final week of Base 1 with a 1:20 recovery ride. I was thinking of taking the day off, as my legs were a little sore after yesterday's ride...which was kind of strange as I didn't go all out, in fact my Intensity Factor for the ride was 0.76. For 2+hrs of saddle time that's not an overly high IF number. In any event, it left me sore, so after thinking about it I decided that some active recovery would be better than totally taking the day off.

It was indeed a recovery ride...my avg watts for 1:20 was 183. We'll see tomorrow, but I think it was just what my legs needed.

Nothing like a little Christmas decoration sightseeing while riding.
