I'm signing up for my first race, which is in a month and a half. First of all, should I do beginner(10 miles) or sport(20miles)? How beginnery is beginner...I'd say that for trail riding, I'm pretty intermediate.
Any recomendations for training in my month and a half? I've been riding 4-5 days a week with a couple 2-3 hour rides and then some easier rides...Should I keep this up or start a more scientific method?
Ok, so I'm a big guy and want to lose about 20# right now. Over the last month and a half, I've lost about 9 pounds, but I can definitely feel the effect of too few calories on my riding and recovering. Should I keep trying to lose weight aggresively or eat more and work more on building strength and speed? Any suggestions on how to go about doing both?
The search function is dead right now, so don't get too pissed if I'm overlooking previous posts.
