I was wondering if entering the Leadville 100 be a wise decision. I have experience with 100 mtb events. having completed the Lutsen99er about 4 times in a row. As well i completed the Mohican 100 once last year and done 2 other independent 100 milers in Minnesota and done the Cheq40 twice etc, etc
would i have enough experience to take on the Leadville 100? and what would be good time frame to consider a specific training plan? or would what i am already following help in all those steps? thanks
Anyone on this board done the Leadville 100? i know its lots of climbing? what your thoughts on this event?
Sounds like you are ready for the challenge. Never done it but my fellow bike did it and i remember he had to ride sat 100 miles and Sunday 100 miles on flat terrain.
