2hr Z2 🚴🏽 + 1hr z2 🏃🏾 ✅.
Today’s focus was fueling. Pre-ride, on the bike then proper recovery. Getting all three has been difficult for me. Today I think I got it right and I felt electric ⚡️ from beginning to end 👏🏽.

This morning’s sunrise session was wonderful. Some bendy-stretchy 🧘🏾♂️ time mostly working on my hip and shoulder mobility 💪🏾. Of course I enjoy watching the sun move across the trail 🏃🏾 🌅.

Sunrise bendy-stretchy 🧘🏾♂️ #progress - 1st time getting into an elbow handstand 🎉😁. It was totally rushed and uncontrolled because I wanted it so, so badly that I did whatever I could to get it done #impatient. Now, I’ll slow down and develop the strength and exercise control to flow into the pose properly.
I forgot my swim trunks so only half of my two-a-day 🏊🏽 🚴🏽 got done 🤷🏾♂️.

I got in some bendy-stretchy spinning happiness today. My thighs are sore from yesterday’s track work 😬.
