Yesterday was 35' of recovery commuting. Legs felt sore yesterday too. My upper body/neck is pretty knotted up as well.

So here's the question: what do I do today in prep for tommorrow morning's RR?

1. Drive to work and give the legs a full rest day. Very light massage only.

2. Do my commute in to work, just to get the legs moving a bit. Recovery pace.

3. Do some light openers as planned. 30' ride with a few spin ups.

comments welcome.

thanks.
I wouldn't ride today at all. Maybe sprint up one flight of stairs to kick the junk out a bit. I probably wouldn't even warm up for the road race.
