Stressing the system

Saturday's ride was 3:12:52 and covered 55 miles
Sunday's ride was 3:35:38 and covered 61 miles
Tendon is still problematic, but much less so than a month ago.
Didn't have to nurse it this weekend and it wasn't a limiting factor, but the inflammation could be felt. It's actually much worse after the ride is over, especially walking down a flight of stairs.
I got a taste of this tonight at the PPAC. My son and I were seated upstairs to watch the "Go Diego Go!" performance. Coming down the stairs I was grabbing the handrail. WTF? Am I going to need one of these before I'm 40?

Get a professional massage. You need it.

i'd wager an equal $$ of pro massage would make ya way faster than a power meter

I spend almost $1000 per year on massage therapy, which is a lot, but I would not be racing without it. I only started it 3 years ago, and it completely changed my body's response to training (at least I think it did, as I can't measure it without a power meter...)
