Pleasant St. Hill Climb

How many of the 36 racers registered with Minneapolis Musette will go out and “Strace” each other before the competition on April 14? That’s my attempt at coining a term for Strava segment competitions. Got a better one?

Segment created:

Strace on Strava dorks.

Humans from all over the world come and visit me in a flying machine just so they can jump on me. 
UPDATE: Another picture of a human jumping on me. This is from Brian W. Jones who says I am so much fun to jump on.

Want to learn about the new high school mountain bike racing league in MN?  Plan to attend our MN League Kick Off Open House on March 11th.  This event is for both students and their parents, or anyone interested in this new league. We’ll have materials on how to start a team, info on the coaching license program, product displays to teach new riders about bikes and gear, and a “Connect Zone” so people who want to form a team can meet others from the same area.

We’ll provide free food and refreshments, posters, flyers, stickers, and we’ll have MN League t-shirts for sale.  Make plans now to attend the Kick Off for the MN League.  You can help play an important role in getting this new league going.  For questions, please email MN League Director Gary Sjoquist at gary@minnesotamtb.org.  Please RSVP to Gary by March 10th if you plan to attend – we need to order food and drink.

Run Workout from Coach for 1/13/12

I think the timing of this workout is rather convenient: The first Friday the 13th of the New Year?! Thanks, coach:

Ok, this is a crazy one. Find a very big open grass area, a park, football field whatever. Progressively warm up running easy, then: run hard for 8 to 10 minutes, then do walking lunges for 5 (yes, out in the snow or mess or whatever there is). Repeat this sequence for the rest of the time. Don’t worry, you won’t be cold for long;)

My comments via my TrainingPeaks software so far:

You bastard. This is going to hurt like hell. Are you smiling? Haterade in mass quantities.

I don’t imagine that will gain in positivity. Who wants to join me?
