Friday: 20 mile bike; abs

I hate recovery weeks and am still trying to perfect them. My body has completely shut down. My quads look twice as big as they usually do because they are so tight. My left achilles started to hurt today sitting at my desk despite barely any training this week. And despite only eating salad, chicken, fruit, and cereal over the last two days, I feel like I've put on 20lbs and feel completely bloated. In short, I feel awful. I've been here before so I only know its only a matter of a few days until I feel back to normal (and hopefully stronger), but it's not a fun place to be.

20 mile recovery ride. 1:03. 186w. 115bpm.
