Ski or not?
Towards the latter part of the race Saturday my arch started bothering me, I figured it was just from ski racing for 2+ hours, which it pretty much was. I didn't think much of it but last night it started to bother me a bit so I popped a few ibuprofen and went to bed. This morning it still is there so the question came... to ski or not to ski? Skiing easy most likely won't hurt it, but an extra day of rest after a lot of travel and racing isn't the worst thing either so I am taking the day off. This week is planned to be pretty easy with one 2 hourish ski per day and some light runs and then put in some harder efforts Saturday before the Tour to warm the body up for racing. A day off in the middle in the big picture doesn't make much of a difference and over the years I have tried to do too much when a little flare up like this happens and sometimes it ends up okay but that is also why I have issues with pretty much every appendage in my body. So I like to think that today I made the smart decision.
