The plan for this season's racing and training is with the intent of competing in RAAM 2015. Each one of these races on its own is grueling, and done within five days, fits perfectly into a training program for RAAM. I was the only WSI team member at the 24hr and yes; it was lonely at 3am. There were other teams grouped up and I felt their energy as they whizzed by. Part of me was a little jealous, but deep down my defiant side was deeply motivated to keep going. The Lumberjack is a tough course, but so much fun because other WSI team members were there competing. There were also team members and fans at the event supporting racers Eric Cook, Dan Frayer, and Jack Miner. What a difference in motivation between the 2 races! I used my intrinsic desire to succeed solo aginst the world at the 24hr and my love for comraderie and shared suffering with friends at the Lumberjack.
