Did I survive ADVANCED ZWIFT RACING while sick? 🤒

Описание: After a week sidelined by a nasty cold, I decided to jump straight back into the deep end: Stage 3 of the Zwift Games in the Advanced (A) Category. With all the fast usual suspects: ‪@njalpedersen‬ ‪@BikeBonkBiff‬ ‪@slingshotwatts‬ ‪@manuelrides‬ ‪@edlaverack‬ ‪@zachnehr72‬
The Cobbled Crown in Richmond is legendary for its climbs and doing it at 80% health was a different kind of pain. I went in expecting to get dropped immediately in the pen, but the race went way better than expected! I managed to hold the wheel through the surges on 23rd Street and Libby Hill when it mattered most.
