Your Endurance Lifestyle. Redesigned.

On Tuesday May 18th, right about 11:30am PST, my bicycle and I decided to part ways at about 20 mph coming down a hill outside of La Honda, CA. When all was said and done, I ended up with a fractured pelvis and clavicle, a 3 day hospital stay, and a serious detour from my planned 2010 agenda. Despite the pain and new daily challenges, the experience has started an incredible personal journey that has really affected who I am.

To really make the most of your volume pop, a lot of big things need to come together: family, finances, work, etc. But there’s another huge component to a successful big training week that can’t be overlooked: location, location, location.

Sunday morning came, and I woke up with cement legs. I guess I shouldn’t have been too surprised, given the riding yesterday, but still it hurt. I fired up the coffee and searched the room for my motivation, but it was hiding out big time. After two cups of coffee and resetting all the clocks (losing an hour!), I got into the car to drive to the Town Lake.
