started the season as a 5 and quickly moved to a 4 after 8 races. I have noticed that I'm finally becoming competitive in the 4's by consistently getting top 15 finishes, but they're never below 10. I increased my mileage/time on the bike about three weeks ago, which I felt would help me get closer to getting those top 6 points finishes. Well, in the past week and a half to two weeks, I've slowly began to get more and more tired, and my knees have began to hurt. Knees feel like maybe tendonitis is comin to town, but I can't figure out the energy deal. I feel tired all the time, but am still eating good/healthy. Did I overtrain? I'm getting around 9 hours of sleep a night, so rest isn't an issue. Did I mess up going from 170-180 miles a week to 230-250 miles a week? should I have eased into it?
