Mostly during the offseason but sometimes when I think my workouts aren't tough enough, I find myself searching TR and Sufferfest and other triathlon training plans for more: more quantity and more intensity.
I think I do this on recovery days/weeks when I'm feeling strong. Which begs another question: do you ever cheat on your plan? Instead of taking a day off, you find yourself itching to ride or peel off a quick 5 mile run and not recoding it digitally? I do.
My go to is a MTB ride or quick neighborhood spin. But like after eating the whole Pepperridge Farms Goldfish bag, I feel guilty.
