Wahoo Kickr
Jumping on the trainer bandwagon to start building some MTB fitness with a Wahoo Kickr and Sufferfest 🙂


Memorable Ride: Kitsuma and Heartbreak
Jon locked the keys in the car 🙂 This was a massive ride for Jeremy since it was right after his ACL surgery!




Concept 2 Rower
Due to COVID and not going to the gym, I decided to buy a Concept 2 rower 🙂


Memorable Runs: The Other Epic
Attempt 1:
First time attempting this run and failed pretty badly, called Kate from McAdenville to come and pick me up 🙂



Attempt 2:
The second time was a little faster and at least completed it 🙂 This was probably closer to 30+ miles due to the trails in Poston.

Attempt 3:
The 3rd time was probably one my most solid runs epic run … Rocky Branch + Poston – to the top of Spencer Mountain and back. 4.5 hours … 26+++ miles, 2,200ft climbing.



Memorable Rides: Buffalo Creek
Jon was training for ORAMM and I tagged along. In the thick of Covid. Probably the hardest ride I have ever done. In way over my head …


Random impromptu SUP down the rapids on the fork!
With Jon and Ben!
