Seoul was a great city but while I was there I wished for clean fresh air, there was quite a bit of smog in the city and every restaurant or pub we went into allowed smoking.
And I feel like in my couple of weeks away I have added some extra weight as certain clothes aren't fitting as well either.
I got back last Sunday afternoon and after a rest day on Monday I was back into my riding. I pushed my usual pace to the top of Makara and to my surprise my head was spinning when I reached the top. Wednesday night I hit the trails again with some (fast) friends and struggled to keep up, but at least this ride felt better than the previous days. Thursday I went for a run at lunch time to ensure that if I still wasn't feeling pain from the previous 2 days I would be that day. Friday I had off as I let my legs recover from the run. Saturday I got a text saying "hard and fast" this resulted in a couple of painful laps around Makara Peak with a couple of friends. And then today I have been out again repeating yesterday's effort but on my singlespeed.
Hopefully with this weeks effort I should be back into it.
