First Place At Cougar Mountain Classic!

This past Sunday was the mountain bike cross-country race at the Cougar Mountain Classic. I wanted to have a little fun and have a break from triathlon training and racing so I thought this would be perfect to break up the routine. To keep the race fun and prevent me from taking it too seriously, I opted for the 14 mile category instead of the 21 mile. This turned out to be a great decision because I won my category! I beat out eleven others in my age group and took overall victory in the beginner category of 58 competitors! This win marked my first ever in mtb cross-country racing.

Week 5, Same as Week 4

Nothing new here... continue with last week's workouts for this week.

Week 4 of "10 Weeks to a Sprint Triathlon"

Week 4 is about staying consistent with your "Build" phase of your training. Continue with steady workouts at medium pace. Keep the momentum going and stick with your training schedule, week 6 is a "Rest" week so don't slack off now!
