today I rode 25.5 miles @ an average cadence of 86 rpm's and an average speed of 18.6 mph the 20 took me 1:05:54 the total time with the last five being my cool down was 1:27:49. The thing is my inner thighs hurt like I was squeezinmg the saddle, and by the time I got done I felt totally wiped out. Getting heart burn around mile 8 did not help matters. Am I pushing to hard??? I had two hard boiled eggs, a half grape fruit, some melons and grapes in cottage cheese, 1 Dannon yogurt, a cup of OJ, a glass of milk, three hours before I rode. Is that not a good diet?? Oh and for some reason my shoulders have been hurting since I have started cycling. I have to be doing something wrong. There is no way you can ride a century if it feels like this. How do you generally feel after a 20 - 30 mile ride.
tommorrow i am only going ten @ a 70 - 75 cadence to recover good idea or bad
