One week before the Xterra western championship

In a less than a week I will be back to Lake Las Vegas for the western Xterra championship. The last time I was there, it was for the G4 challenge Canadian selection, sponsored by Land Rover. Although I didn't go on the global race, Lake Las Vegas has been a good racing site for me so I hope some of that good vibe will rob off 8 years later. This race will be a 1.5 km lake swim, 30 km MTb and 10 km trail running. Desert wil be the feature and I expect a wetsuit swim. I will be competing in the clydsdale division. Clydsdale are for racers over 200 lbs for the male division. Although this division will not be at the world championship later this year in Maui, I decided to give it a go. I will still be able to compare my time with guys in my age group non the less. As usual the boys at experience have dialed up the mountain bike and they will be packing it for travel. As for my Kona lottery, well I made a mistake, April 15 is the day I will find out about it. Stay tuned as I will blog from Lake Las Vegas about the course, the field and the result. The race is April 10, 8:30 am pacific time. Happy trails!

Carpe Diem
