Except for maybe most of those bike rides. I am like you, compression sleeves/calves. I like the Fox River socks too much to use full compression socks for a long distance race. It is all about recovery and these certainly help you bounce back the next day. See you soon. No all out efforts for me. Except for maybe most of those bike rides.

Ok, you might jump like he did but as i recall he never worn compression socks !!! If my calculations are correct, you have raced, all out, for 4h30min02sec in the weekend!!! and you were just a little sore. I guess your socks helped you to put all these great performances out there...And yes, you're right, i should not sandbagging because to my surprise it went better that i thought it would...perhaps because like you, i too wear compression socks. Well, calf guards, actually, during racing, but socks for recovery. Good luck for next weekend. Looking forward to read your report when you get back. You sure are not Michael Jordan.

That race is my nemesis man, that's the second year in a row I've tried it and it's the second year in a row for a DNF. Expect me back next year... I've got some unfinished business with Cobourg. Good luck with the 226. Markus. Nicely done Rog.
