15 days

Turning now from IM specific to taper/peak. Legs definitely feel the load of the past 14 day block. I'm pleased with how it went. volume will drop all the way down to about 10 hours next week with good intensity.

Changing my BMC set u from a 55/42:11/23 to a 53/39:13/26. this reduces the gear ratio on my smallest gear from 1.83 to 1.50--about a 19% reduction which should help protect my quads on the 3 climbs art IMC. Of course I'm giving up quite a bit on the top end but I suspect I'll be coasting (scarred) a lot on the descents anyways.....
