I won't bore you with all the details but in early June during a big build for my "A" race, I went of the "cliff" with training. I had done the volume in years past but the addition of the heat just put me over the edge. Cut back, went into taper and thought I would be ok. "A" race came and felt like crap---just too deep in the hole.
Now, two weeks out with some easy training. Both in biking and running, the heart rate is just much higher for the given output whether it be WATTS or pace.
Can I just do Zone 1 "Aerobic" efforts for a while and cut down the volume and eventually come out of the "hole" I dug myself in?
