I decided in order to be successful for my race that I needed to cross train. I have been playing soccer (4-zip, Yeah, Motley Blu!), trail running, and lots of dance. I feel like my heart has to be in the best shape to be competitive.
Last night Jen and I headed out to Paradise to ride XC and pedal. Jen rode a single speed Jamis and I rode a Trek Remedy. I ride with some of the best mountain bikers in the NW and keeping up with Jen on a single speed was tough!
We pedaled for 1.75 hrs, stopped only for me to catch up to Jen and figure out what loop to take. The best part of the night was riding around 9 p.m. without lights. We were riding fast and to take away your sight and just concentrate on your balance knowing that your bike is going to absorb the terrain was FABULOUS!
We got back to the parking lot and it was empty.....and then their were two!
