3rd Place – 2008 Sunburst Showdown Comp 30-34

Posted by joel on August 11, 2008

After taking a couple days off from riding after the 24 hours of 9 mile, I participated in the Sunburst Showdown on Sunday Aug 9th. The story of the day for me was my inability to generate my normal power output. Since the race took place on a ski hill there was ample amounts of climbing that I can normally do well at. For what ever reason, I was unable to hammer the hills. The other problem is, I’m not sure what to equate the lack of power to. Perhaps it was the 140 miles I did the previous Saturday at 9 mile, or perhaps the lack of riding during the week, or even something I ate. I wish I knew….

Anyway here is a link to the [results].
