Eighteen days until the Elite 24 Solo Worlds in Canmore, baby! Feeling like a finely tuned machine (a slightly dusty machine, maybe, but a machine nonetheless). Gotta give a major shoutout to Lynda, the queen of all things “LWCoaching” (dot com, obviously). This woman dropped some serious knowledge bombs on my training plan – for free, no less! Like, who does that anymore? Seriously, is she secretly Wonder Woman disguised as a coaching guru?
Anyway, long story short, the 24 Hours of Rapelje got the ol’ snip-snip (thanks, Mother Nature!), and I was all set to go rogue with a 24-hour solo ride to prove something… probably to myself. But Lynda, bless her heart, intervened and hit the brakes on that train wreck of an idea. Two weeks of threshold torture (think burning legs and questioning your life choices) followed by a sweet, sweet 10-day taper is the new game plan. Feeling good about it, folks. Feeling real good.
Now, excuse me while I go stock up on enough gels to fuel a small rocket and maybe, just maybe, practice channeling my inner Wonder Woman. Canmore, here I come! (And hopefully, my legs will follow…)
