The way I’m looking at it is “something is better than nothing”. And given how I feel as of late, today could just have easily have been a nothing day. But at least I did something.
I knew I was at 96km on the week – all Zwift / indoors this week – and I figured I might as well push through and hit the 100km riding goal. Maybe I should have stayed on for the remaining 4km yesterday and just skipped today, I don’t know.
It’s not that I’m not enjoying Zwift at the moment. I am. I would quite like to try out some RGT and GTA Bike V as well, just to vary things up, but the indoor training is at least some solace now that outdoors is looking garbage for the foreseeable.
I just… I don’t know really, I feel so tired and sore lately. I’m worried I’m ill, or certainly not 100% well. I woke up as though I had a hang over this morning. I took two paracetamols, got dressed, got my dressing gown on, and went back to bed for three hours. It’s practically unheard of for me to do this – and I’m just glad my wife and kids obliged.
So yeah, something isn’t right.
And with that in mind, maybe riding wasn’t such a good idea. But I did take it easy. Not super, ridiculously easy, but very easy. I want to believe it was that SST session that’s done it. Though I suspect that the exhaustion I’m feeling was amplified by that, not caused by it.
Hopefully it’s something small. With all the people I know now who are infected / hospitalised with corona, I think I’m being spooked.
My aim is to ride tomorrow. I don’t normally ride Mondays but I feel like I should. See how I feel.
Meh.
