Yassss! I'm BACCCK!  My first race since 2015! 💥 I was so stoked to be back to riding mtb when I heard about the BigFoot Enduro.  I have raced the smaller enduro, the Big Creek Quick Six, but these 1-2 miles runs would definitely be a new challenge for me.  Being familiar with the race format and strategy helped with my confidence to attempt this event. After months and an entire summer of bummers gone to COVID, all my Xterra & triathlon goals went down the drain.  I focused on happiness and for me that meant I couldn't wait to get into the woods.  With two littles at home, it has been so hard to make the time to visit the epic places to ride... I'm looking at you Pisgah!   We made a small trip to Tsali earlier this year for my other cancelled off-road triathlon, but when I went to ride a rainstorm drenched the area and I had to bail. 😤  Luckily I had something new to look forward to, and my husband graciously went along with my crazy idea to do this 5 Stage downhill

My beautiful family     Hello Again!💜 WoW, two babies in 4 years and I'm finally ready to get back to off-road triathlon after a 6 year hiatus!  It was so tough with baby #1 getting my riding time in and I'm finally more seasoned with my life/work balance and now baby #2... I think I can do this again!  I can't believe it's been 6 years now, it's like I'm starting off new!   ...but I still have my skillz and I'm so stoked to have some new goals! Now that I have a new year in front of me it's time for some excited new goals -   to rekindle my passion for off-road triathlon !!   My last Xterra was Fort Yargo back in 2014 and I was so stoked to get 2nd place in my age group and finish the race strong...  Big changes came after that, we bought our first house, moved to the burbs, and I got a new job...then BAM I was pregnant with my first little girl ! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 While I was out, there were lots of changes to Xterra,...
