I know it sounds silly but I think I've gotten a sprain like neck injury from riding too much too soon in the aero position.
Until last weekend all my riding since my last triathlon in October has been on my mt bike with drop bars, my "training bike" I call it or on my road bike on the trainer. Last Saturday and Sunday I rode my tt/triathlon bike about 50 miles in the aero position.
I was able to swim normally on Monday with no pain in my neck when I rolled my head to breath. Then at work a few hours later it suddenly hit me and has hurt like hell ever since.
From what I've read it's a classic "sprain" like injury but I didn't crash, fall or bump my head. I've been trying to train through it but it's not getting any better.
Any ideas?
