Started this one last year, highly recommend.

One piece of advice though: Do take an occasional day or two off, especially if you notice it’s continuously taxing or hurts.

The body sometimes needs a few days to actually heal and recover before being able to climb to the next step

    I learned this when I went hard into biking, I initially was trying to go for a ride every day but once I got to riding 20-40 minutes at a time the physical stress on my body of not taking rest days was starting to be felt so I started taking rest days. Now I'll try to do one day of no riding immediately after a 20 mile ride, then one to two days of really light riding (only 4-6 miles) before even considering another long and hard ride. So far my record is 75 miles in a week!
