      I'm on week 9 of the TIME CRUNCHED Category 1 Cross Country Mountain Bike Base Training Plan, and spent weeks 7 & 8 fighting one of the flu bugs that's going around.  Zone 4 (HR) efforts still occasionally bring on coughing fits, so I'm doing what I my body will allow.  I'll go right into the 6-Hour Solo Mountain Bike – Personal Record Plan (peaking for Syllamo's Revenge), and am wondering what changes – if any – need to be made to regain the aerobic fitness lost while sick.

      When you are 100% healthy ease back into training with a few easy days before getting back on plan. Don't try to make up anything missed.
