XTERRA Worlds Nod and Governor Cup and Pepsi co

Great day yesterday watching the kids and Austin run the Governor cup 5k and Hansen and McDermott run the 15K. Everyone had a good day. Austin was 5th, Noah 8th and Abbi 25th, Hansen 6th and McDermott 10th in the 15K.


I didn't run...nursing a sore leg after Market to Market...need to be healthy for this weekend...

Funny how things shake out...

The way the XTERRA series is set up is there are a bunch of local events across the globe. In the USA XTERRA has 8 regions set up. (We (Nebraska) are in the Mountain region.)) Each region has one regional championship race that allows for top two finishers automatic slots for worlds. In the culmination of all the races you do, you gather points based on placings. If you earn enough points you get a slot at the US Championships, which I was lucky enough to get in this year. The US Championships also has two slots for Worlds in each age group.

At the US Championship race I was 7th in the age group. Turns out the top 5 finishers were already Worlds qualifiers, so the two slots roll down to 6th and 7th...one of which was me.

Not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, I immediately began trying to figure out how to pull the trip off...not easy considering Worlds is in Maui...this Sunday Oct 25th.

Selling some stuff...to help pay for trip. The motorcycle is gone...need to sell a road bike.
