I can't tell you how happy I am to have read this article right now; thanks for posting! I am training currently for the Giretto (see www.cyclingfusion.com) where we will be riding 5 stages of the Giro, 415 miles, in 4 days. I really kicked up my training the past couple of weeks and lately have been feeling extremely tired, run down, and a bit queasy. I slept all afternoon today and I'm hoping that will be the cure. I plan on doing much more tonight! I do agree that getting a good nights sleep is crucial to your recovery.

Good luck at the Giretto! (I know I do much better when I get adequate sleep.)
