Not even a week into my new resolve; training, blogging etc. and I've already been thrown off track. Started with really sore ankles from my exertions of the previous weekend. I had to avoid crossfit Monday and Tuesday because double-unders and box-jumps were on the menu and there was just no way. I rode the 'Buckhead Belly-Ache' on Tuesday night with friends and it was a lot of fun. Wednesday had a fun crossfit workout and performed pretty well. Swim workout Wednesday night was also good. Then BAM! Middle of the night I was woken up with such neck pain that I practically levitated out of my bed.
So a chiropractor visit, many ice packs and my new favourite medicine, ibu-grigio, later I'm trying to take it easy. I really had to force myself not to spin tonight. It wasn't easy. It is taking a lot of discipline to rest but I know I must. A couple of missed workouts this week won't ruin my race; longer term injury and weeks off later will.
