Random one.
I’ve occasionally had a cramps at the end of a hard race before. Quads, groin, even my shin one time. Usually i attribute these to some form of going too hard, being under hydrated or not enough electrolytes. After they subside I don’t really ever think about them again.
Saturday, I was doing a 3-4hr z2 ride (which I do weekly) and I got a nasty cramp in my quad. I was well hydrated, plenty of sodium and not going hard. I kept riding, the cramp went away but the soreness remained for the rest of the ride.
Here I am, 72+ hrs later and that spot on my quad still hurts. Feels like I got a hit hard, and now have a nasty bruise, right on that spot.
I’ve started to lift recently (not heavy … mostly just body weight but some 20-30# kettlebells), in case that’s related.
Anyone ever had that?
