Wednesday bike fail

 This post is for Damie who thinks I never have bad days :) I had planned on a 10,000ft climbing day on the bike and felt good as I started. During the first big 1600ft climb my legs went to crap and I felt weak. On the second 1400ft climb I turned around just after starting the climb and came home. Bagged it at 1:30. I realized I was starving when I finished so I may have had a rare under fueled day. I can usually see these days coming but today it surprised me and in the interest of having solid back to back track/ tempo runs on Friday and Saturday  I didn't force it today. I wasn't so weak that I couldn't have ridden the goal workout but it would have impacted more important training to come. So it was an unplanned easy recovery day. I think more often than not in instances like this an athlete is better off being safe and bagging one session to save two. Had I pushed through today then Friday and Saturday might not turn out as solid.
