This was my first 100 mile mountain bike race. 7-31-2010 The race is the 5th stop on the National Endurance Series. It is 101 miles long and has 11,400' of climbing. Completing a 100 mile race 1 year prior to this event to me seemed like a ridiculous idea and a goal that was not unattainable. I only started riding 2 years ago and racing short courses 1 year ago. This all started 5 years ago in an effort to lose weight and be healthy. I am 40lbs lighter and in the best shape of my life! For those of you thinking of doing the race and want to know what it is like, be aware that I did not capture any of the hardest parts of the course, sorry! I was too preoccupied to reach up and hit record. lol.
