How to spend a day without a workout

I’m a cyclocross racer.
Plan your trainer road and plan 5 workouts a week.
I am in the middle of the race season, but I feel that the training volume is low at about 300 to 400tss a week.
Should I rest on days when I don’t plan to work out?
Or tell me if I should put in some workouts.

Don’t work out, rest, and then internally feel bad about yourself and “feel” yourself getting slower and fatter.

That’s what I do anyway.

Plenty to do; Walk, stretch, relax, read a book, watch some movies, clean your house, clean your car. Prep some food, and go for a very easy bike ride.

I’ve been using www.chess.com to distract me and make me reasonably happy to sit still and rest my legs. It’s hugely addictive.
