Training Summary Sep. 1 - Sep 7

6 weeks out(sep 1)
Overall it was an ok week, had to go to boston thursday night so that kind of threw a wrench into the training, adjusted end of week training best i could, missed 1 long ride on the weekend.. Sciatica is still a problem but is still manageable.. Only a couple more big weeks and i'm home free... Fitness has certainly jumped in the past month, feels nice.. If only i could keep this fitness level long term...

Would have been a perfect week had i gotten my second long ride in over the weekend.. Other than that things feel pretty good. Tired, but feel healthy.. Except for the sciatica..
