Hello everyone,
Wanted to update the blog a bit today, so I wrote a short little blurb for you to enjoy. I’m a week out from the race and recovering well. I’ve been on the bike a little and it feels good to spin. My lungs seem to be taking longer to heal than my legs and I’m still coughing quite a bit with any sort of effort. I spent the weekend at Crankworx, CO right now with the Specialized demo crew doing some group rides and signing posters. Mostly, I’m enjoying the low key atmosphere and light training schedule that I’ve earned for this week! I rode the chairlift a little this week, trying out the new Enduro bikes, and it makes me want a large travel bike for play days.
Next on tap for racing is the Leadville 100 in two weeks, so there won’t be too much recovery time in store for me just yet. I can’t wait to see what the elevation there does to me!
Thanks for tuning in…
Reba
THREE TIME 24 HOUR WORLD CHAMPION (that’s the first time I’ve written that
after my name! It feels good!)
Congrats to all your success this year! My husband and I were at the 24 in Canmore and had great time. I am so inspired by the strong women in the mountain biking world and seeing you made me think of how hard you have to work to become as successful as you are. I want to become a better, faster, and fitter racer and would like to know if you have a website or something that gives ideas on nutrition during racing and what kind of exercises you do in the gym. Have fun and good luck at the Leadville 100!
