A Rest Week
I am very glad to have the Volta Catalunya behind me now. What a rough week, from hard times in the race to uncomfortable times out of the race. I am just happy to be at home with Courtney. It is has been over a month since I last slept in my own bed or was even able to prepare my own meals and just function as a normal person. I am sure I will reap some benefits down the road from all of the racing this month, but for now I am just looking to relax!
Spring has arrived here in Spain. The winds, coming from the south, are blowing stronger each day and bringing with them warmer temperatures. A very welcomed change from the harsh winter we have endured. After a few days on the couch, with long mornings of enjoying coffee, I should be back in working order. Just in time for what might be the hardest week of racing of the year in the Basque Country. The Vuelta al Pais Vasco is a race that strikes fear into every cyclist and whenever it is spoken of one word always comes to mind, “Ouch!” The endless climbing will surely be great prep for the Ardennes and the Giro, but it will come with its fair share of suffering. But I will have plenty of time next week to worry about all of this, for now it is all about enjoying life at home.
