[AoC Day #16] Zwift Race (B): Rhino Racing Crit City on Downtown Dolphin

Knackered. And that was before I set off today. Well, knackered… I mean fatigued. This likely didn’t help me in any way with regards to recovery. But as far as an intensive 30 minute workout goes, I don’t think I could have done much better. Yes, today I took on a new route – Downtown … Read more
