My Racing

A view of my life-long passion for competitive running and cycling::

1. BEFORE 2001: Running everywhere as a youngster and winning my first cross-country race at age 14, competing in cross country and track in high school, training seriously during college and for eight years afterwards, a failed attempt to make the 1980 Olympic Team, and then running recreationally for another 15 years until forced to stop completely due to a hiatal hernia.
2. 2001 – 2004: My first road bike, first racing bike, first race crash, 22 races, two solo centuries, and 33,855 training miles.
   
3. 2005 – 2009: A serious training crash, prostate cancer, a second road bike, no races or centuries, and 29,060 training miles.
   
4. 2010 – 2022: Return to competition as time trial specialist, new time trial bike, new time trial-specific training program. Completed 109 races with 28 victories and 66 podium finishes, including first win in 50 years, and over 70,000 training miles.
5. 2023 RACING SCHEDULE: Tentative schedule of race.

Have questions about racing? Not sure if you can be competitive at your age? Have questions or concerns about any aspect of racing at the local, state, regional, or national level? Chances are pretty good that I’ve faced the same challenges during the last 20+ years of training and racing. Ask me anything!
