I feel pretty good today. My knee is a bit sore but overall, I feel strong and well rested. Today was my first day back to ST after my break for my races. I also went for a recovery ride working on riding with my aerobars and doing some cadence drills. I am starting to feel more comfortable on my aerobars but I still have a great deal of practice before I feel good enough to ride in a race with them.
I have 3 weeks to get ready for my next race!! I found this video and it inspired me to keep going strong!!!! Hope it gives someone out there a much needed boost as well! You cannot watch this and not be motivated!
