Saturday Apr 23, 2016 #

Note
slept:8.5 (injured)

such good sleep.

DEXA scan results.... my bone density is above average everywhere. so there goes my theory of why my shin keeps getting lit up.

shin has been getting noticeably better each day now.... going to take one more full week. when we get back from socal I'll hope to get back at it.
9 AM

Cycling-Road 3:18:00 [3] 50.5 mi (15.3 mph) +3747ft

killer ride with maggie... so fun. hoping my shin heals quickly because i can't wait to get into the mountains for all day affairs this summer.

chatfied, deer creek, south valley, KC, willow springs, red rocks, 470 path, chatfield home. solid look without going to high. it was only Maggie's 2nd ride outside since Fi was born and she killed it.... and as always attacked me a bunch and tried to drop me descending down into morrison... i love her!

Friday Apr 22, 2016 #

Note
slept:8.5 weight:152lbs (injured)

been slaying on the work front... ready for an mellow day and night and then some vacation next week in socal... bummer i won't be running out there.

shin. about the same i think. 99% it is a SFX... even if just a small mild one. hopefully not running after i felt the first sign of it will expedite things.

up a couple lbs. once i knew my shin was F'd kind if bee eating like shit and drinking more beer. i'll turn that around next week.
12 PM

Cycling-Road 1:36:00 [3] 29.0 mi (18.1 mph) +2139ft

Wednesday Apr 20, 2016 #

Note
slept:8.5 (injured)

plana is to continue to bank sleep and take it easy. maybe i can beat this thing in a couple of weeks.

shin a bit better today. been wearing the boot 90% of the time. Dr today. the only change i made in my training was running in the NB Fresh Foam 1080's the sunday before my shin lit up. I really don't think that's what caused the issue though... but that's the only difference.
11 AM

Cycling-Road 1:43:00 [3] 29.4 mi (17.1 mph) +2083ft

easy spin after doc appt. good legs and stoked to just be outside. did half of the dear creek climb. looking forward to all the snow melting and getting in some some climbing.

doc thinks i caught my shin before it turned into a full on stress fracture base on his testing and feeling around. lets hope so. we'll see. getting a dxa scan friday. to check bone density.

Note

good sleep.

shin is for awesome not awesome. completely out of nowhere. 3rd time in the last 2 years my right shin has had some kind of issue. need to figure it out.

got some acupuncture yesterday to see if it would help at all. not sure it did anything but i got a nice nap.

gonna wear the boot and take 10 days off running. i don't think there is any way this can be a SFX (hoping). in the past i have felt something creeping up and this time out of nowhere with early signs. i wasn't even running crazy mileage.

Cycling-Road 1:30:00 [3] 25.0 mi (16.7 mph) +1500ft

mellow recovery spin. garmin edge 500 is jacked. hoping i can get it working again.

legs felt good but didn't push it at all. pure recovery. 40 degrees and sunny. good to be back out on the roads.
