Team Lowroad Maratona Training: Track Day

Team Lowroad Maratona Training: Track Day:
Really enjoyed this day. My 1 hour and 50 minutes seemed to pass so quickly.
A big thanks to all those who gave up there time and a well done to Simon and Gav especially for the amount of sponsorship effort. My own woeful efforts so far have a lot to live up to.
I managed 17 laps (or 27.2 miles) in that time, the only down side I thought was a numb backside. Unfortunately the continuous seating position had a nasty side effect which only became apparent when I came to be escorted off the track.
I suddenly found myself unable to sit down again and rode the mile out of the saddle back to the car. I then found myself in agony to even sit in the car let alone drive the car and pick my daughter (Olivia) up from school. After eventually getting home I tried stretching it out, thinking I'd damaged my ITB's........but in both legs???
Stretches only helped slightly and I conceded to trying the Pro's tried and tested method of muscle pain relief - the cold bath. It took more courage than the Mad March Hare to get in that icy bath. 20 minutes later and a few more stretches the pain relief was almost complete.
I could still feel tightness and twinges during the weekend so decided to keep off the bike for a few days as damage limitation. Back on the bike soon I hope.
