TIRED LEGS?
Four days before I test my body again to see if I'm fully recovered from the 24-9 race. Tonight I rode for 40 miles on my road bike and it's hard to tell what my legs are actually feeling like as they've been sore especially around my right knee since the 24-9. This weekend is the Ore 2 Shore MTB race in Marquette, Michigan which is 48 miles and it should seem short after my most recent experiences. I found out today that I do have a preferred start spot. This makes it easier on race morning when trying to get a good warm-up in. My goal is a top twenty overall after placing 36th last year. Hopefully everything will come together.

Way to kick some ass at 24/9 Scott! It was great to see that you landed on top. Way to keep going going going to the finish.

Thanks!
Did I read somewhere that you kicked butt at the 24 hrs of Afton also? It's so
rewarding to finish strong after fighting off bonking, bad food choices and idiotic
crashes. I'm alreading thinking about my next 24 solo event and what I can do
to ride more miles. Have fun and keep pedaling...Scott
