Went to Brugge today and ate all the ice cream, waffles, and frites I could want... Not exactly the best way to fuel up the day before a race... The legs are so shot anyways, I don't think it really is going to change anything...
Really though... I head home this coming Tuesday and am really looking forward to getting back on my normal diet and a steady routine. When you're living with a host family, you eat what you get and are polite about it, even though it's not always the best thing for you to be eating... Needless to say I put on about 3 or 4 lb's here that I'm gonna have to shed this winter. Granted some of that is likely muscle... I look forward to seeing where I'm at once I shed that extra weight with the added power. I feel much stronger now, for the first hour of the races here I've been feeling great... Yesterdays race felt effortless for the first hour, but things went downhill really quick after that. I'm just fatigued and dealing with some achy tendons that get pretty bad after about an hour of racing... I will make one final showing at a local kurmesse tomorrow that several of the people I have met in my time here are going to go watch and then I am going to relax and do some sight seeing till I leave... which I've kind of already been doing...
