Hi Guys,
I'm just getting back into proper training after having pretty much November (since the fling) and December (Christmas) off. I've probably only ridden 250-300km since then, plus been running once a week and swimming once a week (although no riding or swimming in the last 2 weeks).
I was never really that "fit" I did the fling easily in just under 8 hours, no cramps and felt physically ok at the end of it, but I was fit enough to hold my own and ride all day.
Question is, how easy do I need to go to start training again? I don't want to go like a bull at a gate and end up worse off.
Any advice would be great,
oh & I'm training for the dirt works in May (again just want to make it, healthy & with a big smile on my face)
Cheers,
Chris
