**Strength training includes weights & phys therapy type exercises incorporating bands, poses/holds
Due to the Fetzer 20k being an end of the week race at the end of an R&R week, it left me pretty drained going into the first week of BASE 3. I turned a Tuesday morning endurance (zone 2) ride into a recovery ride and a my Tuesday tempo run (zone 3) into a 30 min recovery level run that was still tough to get thru. Things got a little better on Wednesday, but this first week of Base 3 might end up more similar to a prep week. No harm done as I would expect to have more energy for the next two Base 3 work weeks.
