2 sessions, 33 miles
did my 50 minutes on the trainer before my sports therapy appointment totaling 18 miles. my appointment is with vertical empowerment which offers active release techniques (ART), its extremely helpful in relaxing tight muscles and removing knots but it is also the most intense 30 minutes one can have, yea it hurts, but my rationale is that the injury hurt first, so its got to take some measurable amount of pain to make it feel better.
after the treatment, I could already feel an increase range of motion, i'm back in 7 days for more. this was my 12th appointment so i knew what i was getting myself into. i drove into los gatos in search of a good espresso and a bite to eat. afterwards i was still feeling motivated to ride, so i drove home got back on the bike and rode for another 45 minutes = 15 miles. now im tired, but that's the most amount of miles in a day in a long long time. tomorrow i think ill go for 37.
