Folsom Canal, 22.5 miles. QuestXS (open cockpit). N-29.2, S-24.5. Yesterday afternoon I hit the diet wall and had to eat. My energy plummeted. Despite eating 2-3000 extra calories I'm still weak and slow on the bike. I expected as much as it takes me 48 hours to recover from a full glycogen depletion. I'm going to try adding 840 calories to my daily diet (3160 calories total) and see what happens. Oh well, there's another one for the bad idea list (again). At least I undid the damage I did leading up to the last race.
