"Helping The World DISCOVER THE WAY of LOVE!"
When you set a race goal for May, and it's early December, it almost doesn’t seem real. It’s easy to commit to something when it is but a speck on the horizon, but having the determination, dedication and focus to make the necessary life sacrifices, to make the necessary changes to your training that might put you in a place fitness wise to make a legitimate run at the Dirty Kanza 200 podium, two wheel scooter self balancing considered by many to be the toughest one day gravel race in the United States, is a completely different story. Well, I did make the life sacrifices in the past six months, just ask my wife. I began working with a coach, and power, to see what changes I could do to my training that might allow me to perform at my physical peak (even at the ripe YOUNG age of 44), and give me a shot at the top step of the podium (not that I totally believed that was possible due to the talented competition). I began logging very long miles, piling on 15 to 18 hour weeks, all while trying to hold down a full time job with GU Energy Labs as their Marketing Manager: Cycling. I also partnered with Inside Tracker, a personalized health analytics company founded by leading scientists, physicians, nutritionists and exercise physiologists from MIT, Harvard and Tufts University, to find ways that I could optimize my nutrition so that I could be at my physical best. Let’s just say that things got VERY real at this year’s Dirty Kanza 200, REAL quick.
