Little Red Riding Hood Century

The century went great. I posted the fun details on my other blog. But this blog is for even more details that I want to remember.

Nutrition wise I did cytromax in one water bottle and straight water in the other. I went through 5 water bottles total (2 cytromax). I did 1 1/2 packs of shot bloks (black cherry of course...yummy) and 2 accelgels (1 w/caffeine and 1 w/o). I tried to eat about every hour and drink about every 15 minutes. I also did 3 endurolyte pills two times (sadly I lost my awesome hammer pill bottle and wasn't about to stop to get it). I ate about half my sandwich with lots of pickles and some fritos (salt was very yummy) with a coke and half a cookie at lunch. I never felt like I was hitting the wall, I think I managed to keep ahead of it with hourly nutrition.

After the ride I stretched, drank a recovery drink (eundurox) and took a 15 minute ice bath. Today I'm not sore at all.

I'm going to try going for an easy run tonight then tomorrow is spin.
