Foot pain

'Afternoon all,
I'm getting some mild pain but would like to sort it before it gets worse. Background:

What's wrong with me?

Carousel short title:

What's wrong with me?

Heart rate: 185bpm, my lungs feel like I'm inhaling fire, they're searing, every breath is bringing a wheeze with it that makes me sound like I've got emphysema, need to take deeper breaths.

Shouts ringing in my ears.

I need to get out of the saddle, keep turning the pedals. Cowbells.

I'm staring at my front wheel, hunched low over the bars, trying to wrestle the bike up hill faster than it wants to go.

Be Realistic Ask the Impossible: Go Your Own Way

In a protracted period of denial I've put of writing this entry for long enough but I suppose it's time to face facts... the Etape dream is over.

Well, that sounds awfully melodramatic, but for this year at least I will not be able to realise my ambition of elevating my cycling fitness level and riding the same roads as some of the Tour de France's greats in the Etape du Tour.

upper back pain

Hi guys, this is my first post.

Knee pain...

Evening all. Any doctors in the house? Anyway, before I go and see a real GP, just wondered if any of you have had a similar problem and if so, how did you beat it?

My left knee hurts when I bend my leg, sort of at the back, but most ly internally. I can still walk around unimpeded, and on my bike it doesnt hurt or ahything, just basic things like squatting brings sharp pain. Very annoying. The right leg is fine.
