challenge set




This years challenge is set (though not date wise yet) for a 28 mile run and a 28 mile bike. Since I was unable to complete the 27 last year I figured I might as well try again to finally notch one out. This year will be reversed so that the run will take place first followed by the biking portion. This could very well be an overnight gig on the 18th into the 19th since I believe we have a Christmas dinner the night of the 19th. In other news I have already got the 2010 challenge underway by signing up for the Clinton Lake 30 mile ultra in March, the first part of the IL grand slam of trail running. The slam consists of a 30,31,32, and 50 mile ultras. The challenge should be a good gauge as to how that first ultra will play out. In any case I'm very excited for things to come including new training and a slightly different outlook on my diet. I will post more details when they become available and as always I'm looking for participants.
