WinterPark Super Loop: Race Report

Ahhh, sweet redemption after last weekends DNF and Crested Butte. Last weekend the rain, mud, rocks and roots took its toll on me, and I dropped out after 2 of 3 laps. I think it was a good decision as was either going to break something on my bike or something on me.

This Saturday was the WinterPark SuperLoop race. I tried something different for this race, and did not look at my heart rate. My theory was that every time I saw my threshold in previous races I would back off too much. Well my theory was right as I was able to average a higher heart rate than usual. This was a shorter race so I was able to push it to the limit the entire race.
