Can you mix the morning meal up for a change? Stay with the picnic nutrition strategy. It's worked for you for 10 years so why change it?

It was incorporated into the Buena Vista Cycling Festival route and was the best part of the whole ride in my and my wife's opinion. I would go back to Leadville just to ride that and explore. I do have to ask from the first post if Lisa was channeling Selene Yeager with the happy socks she was wearing? The Leadville Mineral Belt trail is a really fun loop to ride or walk.

Maybe I missed it (or lost it in the cushions of my couch), but was Rebecca's Leadville Experience a one-time event around her book launching? I'd show up next year just for this, without even entering the race! It obviously was beneficial. I'm totally into your story! What great coaching and training!

I don't wear cotton socks....or maybe I do....I'll have to check. Hm. But now I need to know the answer!
