After taking Saturday completely off from exercise, hitting Mt. Baldy yesterday ended up working out pretty good. I probably should not have hit Friday as hard (original plan was to spin only but mixing it up with Hiroshi changed that), but it probably wasn't too much of a factor. I'll respect the L'Etape more though and take it easy the last few days before.
For nutrition, I ended up having only 2 waffles and 2 gels only. I also had 1 packet of Shot Bloks + 1 tab on a new one. For hydration, I drank 2 21-ounce bottles plus 1 16-ounce bottle of water. I think from a food perspective, I was right where I wanted to be. I did carb up the night before (more than normal), so I think that helped a lot.
For this morning, I woke up to do chest but decided to go back to bed and push it out to lunch time instead. I will skip cardio today to let my legs recover a little more from yesterday. They were quite achy by the time I got to the top of Baldy, but that went away on the way down. They do feel fatigue now, so I'll rest them until tomorrow.
