Training, Training, Training

I am going into this season prepared to spend a lot more time on loner training rides. Today I rode 30 miles of dirt road and 10 miles of singletrack in and around Yankee Springs.  My goal is to go into these 100 miles races as prepared as possible, knowing that the distance should not be an issue.  I am still having some sensitive stomach issues on longer rides, but I am optimistic that this will clear up as I train my body for these types of rides.

I am so lucky to have a wife and family that supports me as I take on training and competing in these events.  So many times I have heard from guys that there significant others are just bitching the whole time about their mates racing.  This sport is tough enough,  let alone dealing with the added stress of a non-supportive spouse.... for this I am so lucky  and appreciative of the wife I have, thank you Pam for being so supportive and loving to me as I take on this very tough and time hungry sport.  I couldn't do it without you.
