I just posted some off road duathlons that happen at some of our favorite trails. I’m going to compete at the Yargo and maybe the Chicopee races. The races also have team categories, if someone wants to compete but doesn’t have a bike, they can run!!! Holla at me if you’re interested.

added race events for the next 2 months which I’m participating in to the calendar. if anyone wants to tag along one weekend let me know.

Well it was definitely cold, but I braved the temps and set my sights on Dalton GA, home of the 2010 Sanke Creek Gap time trial series. This was the first time I attempted this event and fromthe time I had taken out the garbage at my house to seeing the snow coming down in Dalton I knew that it was going to be a challenge. The temp was around 11 degrees and the cold and rocky terrain were playing Jedi mind tricks on my soul. Through it all, I survived the Snake and finished with the fastest time in my age group and 3rd fastest overall with a time of 2hrs 12mins. Hoping to be under 2hrs the next visit to the Snake in February.
