2007
mountain bike racing schedule
Season
assessment: I put on more miles this year than I likely did several
of the previous years combined. I made a concerted effort to improve
my climbing and endurance. I had numerous 100 mile training weeks,
riding 20-30-40 miles at a time numerous times per week. I finished
first in FunPromotions Endurance series the hightlight of which was
my 158 miles at Drummond Island in which I had more laps than any
other solo racer (and as many laps in twelve hours as the top 12Hr
racer). I also took ten minutes off my time at Ore to Shore (on a
course that was generally considered slower due to increased sand).
My big failure was again not finishing Lumberjack.
2008
goals? Not sure yet. I do need to increase my speed (intervals and
sprints), work on core body training (back and abdomen) as well as
minor upper body exersizes for shoulders and biceps.
