Let the Training Begin!

This week was the start of my return to Mtn. Bike racing. I felt the need to get back into biking form this week after signing up for my first two races of the 2009 season. The first race I am going to be doing this year is the Triple D down in Dubuque. It is a frozen 54 mile race from Dubuque to Dyersville and back to Durango via the Heritage Trail. It should be an interesting experience. Heading down there with 3 current/former Decorahnites. The second race I am signed up for is the Oauchita Challenge 60 mile race down in Oden, Arkansas. Signed up for this race with Shockstar. Claimed to be one of the toughest in the nation. Well see when we get there. As far as training for these events I am on the trainer every night for between 45min and 1hr right now. I can't stand much more than that right now. Also doing an upperbody workout every night using Perfect Pushup. I hope this will at least get me pointed in the right direction for the remainder of the year. Got to love Christmas Break, 2 weeks off school and living it up in Decorah. Well that is all for now. Out!
