As far as 30 minutes go, I have heard its like having your heartrate maxed out the whole time! This is the main reason I want to do it. Bmac /QUOTE] |

| Elite 2553 Tucson, AZ | Subject: RE: first cyclocross wish me luck Good luck! My first CX race of the season is this Sat. Tucson has a nice little race series. They skipped it last year, so it's been over a year since I've raced CX. But thanks to the tri training, I'm in a lot better shape now! I always practiced my running mounts/dismounts in T1/T2. For those wanting to learn more about CX, here are some helpful sites: Cyclocross for the Novice: http://members.aol.com/napavelo/intro.htm Cyclocross 101: http://www.maddogmedia.com/crossnet/howto.html What is Cyclocross?: http://bigshark.com/site/page.cfm?PageID=68 |
