The road to the radio towers is short, but features a super-steep grade up a 400-foot ascent.  requires good bike handling skills & slow-speed skills.  starts with a 28.5% grade section and then moderates (if you can call it that) to a 13-17% grade.  It really doesnt sound steep, but when you are on it, it is very difficult to climb - once you stop, its very difficult to restart.  still coughing 7 hours after.

almost flaked this morning on the mtb ride.  felt tired.  continued to feel tired during and after the ride.  just left too much on the hill yesterday, I think.  hopefully my crappy slothful session was worth something in the way of recovery.  I didn’t feel like I was recovering, but my HR says I did spend a good part of the ride in recovery zone.  we’ll see if I can motivate to get a run in tonight or tomorrow am before monday swim.
