Today's the day before we start the Breck Epic 2015! My friend, Chip Hoover, invited me back in the early Spring with some of his college friends; Eric & Richard Schurke, and Eric Burke. The race is spread over 6 days, 240 miles, with 40,000 feet of elevation gain. I'll have some other friends as well out here, like Rob Batey!
This race will stretch my limits, since not only do I not do a lot of mountain bike races, but I can't tell you the last time I rode 7 days in a row, let alone on a mountain bike, let alone racing . . .
So here's the schedule for the next week:
5AM: Wake up
5:30AM: Eat breakfast (Bobo bar & Justin's nut butter), coffee
5:30-7:30AM: Relax/read
7:30AM: Dress
8AM: Ride to start
8:30AM-1PM: Race!
1PM: Drop bike off at Avalanche Sports to get washed and tuned
1:30PM: Recovery shake & shower
2-4PM: Nap
4PM: Snack
5PM: Rider meeting
6PM: Dinner
9PM: Normatec "space legs" sesh and get in bed
9:30PM: sleep
Or as my wife says, "Sound like your perfect vacation!"
Let's do this!
