After two weeks of limited efforts, I decide to do a threshold test only to discover I have lungs of fire! I can't actually breathe fire like Godzilla. But it does feel like a pyre is burning in my chest. Strict intrepetation says my FTP is down significantly. Quantitatively I realize that my legs felt great, and never reached that 'lactatey' feeling. I'm totally limited by the lungs. How bad? Bad enough that I almost gagged on my own phlegm. Yum! Next ride I'll try some antihistamine before rolling out.
Meanwhile, the garden is flourishing...
Zuke and bell pepper buds...
My strawberries are starting to bloom.
As are my tomatoes...
Even my herbs are going well so far...
My gardening goal is to grow all of the ingredients for a true homemade and homegrown salsa. C'mon tomatoes!
