Will be starting 2 weeks of anti-inflammatories for my leg starting Thursday. I will race hard in Vancouver, and then training the rest of the week will be easier, and based on pain. For the second week of meds, I'm going to take fully off of training to let the anti-inflammatories do their thang. Hope this will help!
VO2 testing in lab today.
As per usual, legs gave out before my lungs. HR didn't even get passed 190. Gotta get on a treadmill!!
Our data also got screwed up, so no real value to attach to this. What a bummer and a half.

Running!!
Just a short test to gauge where I'm at for Vancouver next week.
In the snow, my leg actually felt decent! I felt like I was working real hard but HR wasn't as high as I was expecting. More ARC trainer this week unless I get a go-ahead from the doctor tomorrow to run.

ARC trainer after massage and ultrasound wave therapy. Felt good! Still not 100% convinced about this machine but it’s pretty similar to running and gets the HR up.
