Burning Quads!

Am total masochist...against all good judgment I biked yesterday. Took an ice bath and an icy cold shower to get me out there. My husband def thinks I'm nuts now. As I'm letting the icy cold water hit my legs, he comes into the bathroom and says "didn't you already shower?" I then proceed to explain to him about my sore muscles. His response being, "don't you think maybe you should just take the day off?" Pass on a ride because of a bit of soreness?! Who me?! Even a flat tire before the ride couldn't deter me. Very slow ride, but def served a purpose. Biking on tired legs is good experience right?! Couldn't handle another ice bath last night. Probably should have, but was too tired. Took nice hot shower instead, much more pleasant. Probably not as beneficial, but hey was going to be in pain today either way. Legs have def earned a day off. Will probably go in and do upper body weights. Had a trail run on today's schedule, but will def do that one tomorrow. On second thought though, just remembered we are supposed to get torrential downpour tomorrow. Maybe Sunday then?! I've rocked it this week as far as training goes! Am feeling really good. :)
