Damp Northern Michigan weather on the days leading up to the 30th edition of Bell’s Brewery made the 2019 Edition of the race a story of grit and grind.
Not a tale of resilience and perseverance, but one of the grinding sound the bikes made as they popped and ghost shifted up every incline of the trail between Kalkaska and Traverse City.

I was happy with my swim, my run and embraced the humbling experience of hiking in the rain.

Ok, so maybe I wasn’t actually “in the woods,” but I was pretty close for a week. As a digital marketer here at WSI, I get the opportunity to work virtually from just about anywhere that I can find a WiFi and cell signal. Since I travel with a hotspot for WiFi and my phone seems to do a pretty good job of hanging on to calls, that makes my office options pretty limitless.
A couple of early mistakes and some back issues.
8/8 in my age group but still earned points for the series.

I raced on Sunday, May 6 by starting my day at the Borgess 10K in Kalamazoo. It was a beautiful morning, and the race had an exciting vibe. Borgess features a Marathon, Half, a 10K and 5K. At this event the last mile was dedicated to veterans, and I was honored with a red, white and blue bib number for my race!
I rested a few hours and headed to Fort Custer for the Sport Category of the Stampede. The race featured many of my favorite parts of the mountain bike trails. It was fun to mix it up and cruise for two laps of the course. By the end of lap 2, I was pretty tired! It had been a long day of racing but so much fun to cross the finish line twice!
