As we gear up for an exhilarating journey into the thin air of the Leadville 100, Ryan Cooper from Best Bike Split and USA Cycling joins me, Dave Schell, to unveil the tactics that help athletes tackle this colossal mountain bike challenge. Ever wonder how high altitude affects your muscle power and endurance? This episode dives into the science of racing above the tree line, where oxygen is scarce, and every pedal stroke counts. We dissect the transformation of functional threshold power at elevation and reveal how a 60-year-old rider named Brandon redefined what's possible through meticulous training and strategy. You'll learn about pacing with the Intensity Factor, taming the Variability Index, and why descending skills are your secret weapon – plus, we crack the code on how to use Best Bike Split for crafting a dynamic game plan, even when drafting plays a negligible role.
But it's not just about the climb; our conversation also navigates the psychological peaks and valleys of endurance racing. As we recount tales of perseverance and adaptability, you'll be equipped with sage advice on setting realistic FTP targets, elevating your nutrition game, and fostering an ironclad mental fortitude. Drawing from Brandon's story and our own racing experiences, we stress the profound impact of proper preparation – not just in its physical form, but as a defining measure of character. Whether you're a seasoned vet or a newcomer to the sport, this episode is your roadmap to turning endurance race dreams into reality, leaving you inspired and ready to tackle your own Leadville-sized ambitions.
