Summary: I began racing in 2008 as a youth Junior B rider. My first season was a learning experience finishing 11th in the Mid South Cross Country Series (MSXC). My second season I started to foucs on getting into the training side of racing. All my hard work paid off at the end of the season finishing 3rd overall in the MSXC series. I trained and worked even harder my Third season in the MSXC series. Finishing second overall in the youth series.
I have taken a step forward and hired a personal trainer to prepare for my big bike career. This has been a new experience for me, but I know it will make me the best athlete I can possibly be. We have worked together since May of 2011 and I am now much leaner and I am also much physically and mentally fitter. We focus on my nutrition a whole lot. We also take lots of notes and record data throughout the weeks and on race weekends to be able to study and compare weeks, races, etc.
My first big bike season, racing Light B in the MSXC series, was a big stepping-stone. I am taking this past years notes and fine tune them and use them to prepare for this upcoming season in the MSXC Heavy A class and use them to win the Heavy A championship and place top 5 in the overall. I have trained hard this summer and feel like I am ready to compete with the ‘A’ and ‘AA’ riders.
As of December 11th, 2012 I have won 3 of 5 rounds in the MSXC series and I am currently leading Heavy A and 6th overall in the point standings. I have raced 2 of the 3 OMA Winter Nationals that have been raced so far this season and I finished 2nd and a 1st (2nd by one second). I am planning on moving up to the professional level regionally as soon as the winter season ends. Nationally I will be racing in the 250A class.
