Leadville 2010

Is this any way to treat family?

"Dear Leadville Trail 100 Family,

We deeply regret that we were unable to accept your application into the 2010 Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike Race."

That sucks!!! I thought 3 finishes in 3 years and over 55 would give me an edge, but it didn't. I guess that brings an end to my pursuit of the elusive 9:59. Damn. Any suggestions for a filler race?

Now I can shift my winter training to the couch and TV. Maybe tonight I can train on a couple boxes of Milk Duds. Double damn...

I hope life goes on.

I'd like to think of this as an opportunity to train longer to get ready for the 2011 race.

Jride, I'm in - I wouldn't miss it. You put on a fantastic race. KV, I don't know.

I'd like to think that Leadville Jumped the Shark long ago.

PCP2P, Laramie, 2 I know you plan on anyways.
