COMMUTE 9.2 miles

Sis and her family came down for the weekend! What a needed visit, to keep me from going nuts with not much else to do during this Badger recovery, and while waiting for tomorrow's test run and Dr L visit.

I'm still on my rice, yogurt, egg, protein powder, some fruit diet. And mostly symptom free. And no urge to try adding veggies back yet. No urge at all. Let me repeat -- I don't miss carrots. ?! 
I emailed the BJC nutritionist I'm working with and her reply was along the lines of "eat barley, brussels sprouts, asparagus for soluble fiber", and avoid egg yolk and chicken thighs, and yeah I just deleted that email and never mind that I even asked.

Today's ride was our first since my race, and BE was out of town last few days for his drum corps weekend in Indy. The first loop was his story, second loop my race story, then third loop a mix. My race had not only the race but also the "rest of the story" lol.

My HR got high in this ride, bumped up to 165-166 bpm during the straightaways, and between the 2nd and 3rd intervals only dropped to 115. The 2nd and 3rd intervals also show a lack of recovery in the turns, which is evident in the first interval. The entire TGP part of the ride shows a slow increase in HR over time.  I could feel the fast beat, lack of breath, is is the recovery?

Or does it have anything to do with the mild chest "symptoms" I'm feeling the last few days? It's not really new, I've had it a while now, so not just post-race, but seems a bit more. I mentioned it to Dr S the Friday before the race. He suggested taking the nitroglycerin and I did a few times. But my stock might be expired so I've refilled the rx at walgreens.

Today on the commute in I felt tired, like I needed to gulp air, like my chest was .... I wouldn't call it "hurt" but I was definitely aware of it. And it's been around all day. Sometimes it's tight to swallow, is that what I felt a year ago in my throat? Ugh. This ambiguity sucks.
