A little bit about me…I come from the east coast, where you play basketball, soccer and baseball. Cycling and shaving your legs is out of the question. So when I moved to Colorado, my eyes opened up quit a bit. I of course found the local pick up hoop games, and continued to play. Until I discovered cycling, actually, mountain biking was my first experience. Seeking to push my body to the extreme, which is a pattern I find myself in, I entered the Ultra 100 Mountain Bike race at Beaver Creek Resort. It included 100 miles of mountain biking with over 14,000 ft of elevation gain. Was i crazy? yes, and with only a few months of mountain biking under my belt, and despite the support of my wife and best bud Harrision, I didn’t finish. I didn’t make the time cut about 60 miles in. So this is just the kind of thing that gets my mind focused on returning the following year and finishing. Which I did, one year later, I finished the event in 11.5 hours. Victory for me.
