I finished my Monday morning training and then jogged 2km to a local market. SHIN SPLINTS (my left leg)!!!!
I guess I weakened it with the torque sprints and the jog caused the injury.
I hopped on the bike later for 65kms and it wasn’t particularly painful.

Question is…I have a reat day tomorrow and a race on Wednesday evening. I’m not sure if this is going to aggrevate it.
Riding in Z2 seems fine and I did a few short intervals in that ride at 120% FTP. Seemed OK.

I could just go into a recovery week, but I’m only 2 weeks into my block.

Should I…a) Stop now and take a recovery week (5days)
b) Finish my block in another week and race on Wednesday?

Would appreciate opinions. Thanks in advance.
