As training time allows, I'll post my race results from previous years and highlight my past accomplishments. Otherwise, I'm focused on the present!
2008 Schedule and Race Results
Mercedes 1/2 Marathon, Feb/2008 - 1:18:46 - 5th in Age group
Very tough field, nice and hilly course.
Snake Gap Time Trial, March/2008- 3:10 - 8th overall
Coolest mountain bike trails ever! Large amounts of climbing.
Xterra Fort Yargo, April/2008 - 1st Overall
Cean, fast trails
Dirt, Sweat, and Gears, May/2008 - 1st Overall team
With rain the night before and tough competition, the race was full of dirt, sweat, and gears with teammate Dustin Greer
Xterra West Championships, Temecula, CA - May 18 - 7th Place
Hot doesn't describe the 103 degrees and a respiratory infection didn't help matters in the dry desert air.
American DeSoto Triple T, Portsmouth, OH - May 23 - 25 - 3rd Place Team
Two flat tires, (Bruce) vomitting on the bike, and an middle of the night trip to the ER didn't stop Bruce and I from finishing. We finished the last race (half ironman) in first with a record time and only 2 to 3 hours of sleep.
Xterra Southeast Championships, Pelham, AL - June 8 - 3rd Place
Best finish as an Xterra Pro - It's good to be on the course to my home course as possible.
Xterra East Championships, Richmond, VA - June 15 - 5th Place
Not quite recovered from Birmingham left me flat on the run, but what a day on the coolest urban course in the US.
Xterra Lock 4 Blast, Gallatin, TN - July 6 - 1st Place
Seven time consecutive winner of this race doesn't even seem believable!
Chattanooga Waterfront Triathlon, Chattanooga, TN - July 13 - 2nd Place
If today was a training day, I would have stayed home and rode my trainer. As I was mounting my bike out of T1, the rain began and continued on and off throughout the day. 40 to 50 mile an hour decents on the road are scary enough in perfect conditions. Add blind, water-filled pot holes and slippery roads to the mix, and I'm slowing down a little even on race day!
Xterra Mountain Championships, Ogden, UT - August 16 - 9th Place
High altitude - do I need to say anything more? I felt sluggish, but I learned a giant lesson.
Xterra USA Championships, Lake Tahoe, NV - October 5
Xterra World Championships, Maui, HI - October 26
I will also compete in various Cyclocross, Road Triathlons, Cycling, and Mountain Biking races throughout the year. When I know what races I will do in addition to the above list, I'll update the site.
