Ouch....training hurts

Alright....I'm waaaaayyyy over-caffinated and sitting in a coffee shop with an espresso sitting next to be calling my name. This should be fun.
Long story short I've been drinking coffee and not riding all day because, well, my legs are shot. Did I not really train over the summer? Could be I guess. Basically I'm trying to make up for some lost time. Just threw my hat in the ring for a couple of upcoming races: the 3 Peaks Cyclocross and the Swank 65k. No point in showing up to go slow right. Hopefully after a season of 100 milers they'll feel short and fast.
Plus the Swank is about as fun as they come. Butter Gap, Farlow Gap, Daniel Ridge, and some really good climbing. It's an awesome one. I think there are still a few spots left. It's worth getting in on for sure. Check it out at Blue Ridge Adventures. Just make sure you have a few rides under your belt first.
