Tips for The Time Crunched Athlete

It's been an incredibly busy 2 weeks around here. Last weekend was our California Alps Training Camp for those entering the upcoming Death Ride. We rode for two days strong, totaling over 10,000 feet of climbing and over 100 miles in the mountains.
After that, I took an extra day just to enjoy the mountains up in Bear Valley, then back to work as usual training and coaching clients, getting them ready for their next events. Summer time is busy for us all with training, family events and parties, work schedules, vacations and the like.

So when you are feeling overwhelmed and can't seem to fit your training sessions into your busy day, try this. Tell yourself that you'll go out just for a quick 20 minute ride, get on your bike and do it! Once you are out there, the likelihood of your ride becoming longer is much better than not getting out there at all!
