Leadville 100 MTB Start

The entry forms for the Leadville races was posted online on Wednesday. This is the 25th year for the 100 mile run. The entries for the mountain bike race must be received by January 31st. The mail to Leadville isn’t exactly fast so you shouldn’t wait until the last minute.

Lance Armstrong has now said he won’t race and Floyd Landis is a maybe depending on how is doping case turns out. By the way there’s a good article in the LA Times that discusses the Landis case and how the testing system works. Quite honestly I think it’s better for the race that Lance isn’t there. Some people of criticized me for saying Leadville isn’t a true mountain bike race but it doesn’t have any single track. To me the draw of the race is the atmosphere. There’s no race that comes close to the atmosphere both at the racer meeting and out on the course on race day. I’m afraid if Lance were there it wouldn’t be the same.

I have about 3 weeks to decide if I’m going to race the Leadville 100 mountain bike race this year. At this point I’m totally undecided whether I want to do it. I’m more excited about doing Montezuma’s Revenge this year. It’s 2 weeks before Leadville so I should be able to recover in time. The Durango 100 is the week before so it won’t work if I do Montezuma’s Revenge. In 2003 I did Leadville with Durango the following weekend and I’m not sure I want to repeat back to back 100 milers.
