Thursday 27

Recovery day! My favorite day of the week. Well, maybe this statement isn't entirely honest. It's the most important day of the week. 
I've noticed that I've neglected some of the small things this week. I forgot about my recovery rides. I haven't been as diligent with stretching or rolling. Gotta do better. 

A.M. flow: MR and percussive therapy for calves, hamstrings, glutes, and hip flexors. Hip and ankle mobility.
