    • ]]>     This is a stunning inside account of what it's like to take part in one of the most epic endurance sport events in the world. RAAM - The Race Across America - is a bicycle race like no other. This epic contest is the most brutal organized sporting event you've never heard of and one of the best-kept secrets in the sports world. Contestants have died, been injured, even descended into the realms of madness. Half of them don't finish - in fact, only 200 racers have ever made it to the end of the 3,000 mile, 12-day course. "Hell on Two Wheels" is a thrilling and remarkably detailed account that follows a group of athletes before, during, and after the 2009 race. By experiencing the race from the perspective of the racers themselves, "Hell on Two Wheels" breaks new ground in helping us appreciate how such a grueling effort can be so cleansing and self-revelatory. This is more than just a race - it's an unforgettable allegory about the human experience of pain and joy and self-discovery.

    • ]]>     I am the Endurance Nerd. I've been competing in nearly all aspects of endurance sports for the last 20 years. Ultra-marathons, iron-distance triathlons, solo 24-hour mountain bike races, along with countless 5K/10Ks,marathons, road cycling races, etc.

    For about the last 15 years I have been a practicing physical therapist, a training consultant, and a professional bike fitter working with athletes from weekend warriors to world class.

    In this time I've accumulated a very particular view on what works to get athletes into peak form and keep them healthy and injury free. I decided to write it because I always saw the same information on the popular endurance websites and in the magazines. I got tired of picking up the latest issue of a running, cycling, and triathlon magazine and feeling like I had read it before.

    I didn't care anymore about the "independent" gear reviews -- they never really seemed to really be that critical of any of the gear.

    I was underwhelmed with the creativity of their new 16-week training plans -- I never felt like they changed very much from the last one they'd recommended.

    Really new training research was rarely presented in them -- generally they were a number of years behind.

    Which isn't to say that I wrote this short book to be a contrarian -- I just want to give eager endurance athletes some of the benefit of the years I've worked at this, and the boiled down knowledge I have into what works, and what doesn't.

    Inside you'll find a collection of articles on topics like:

    Central Governor Model explained
    The ins and outs of training at altitude
    Why training long and slow, just makes you slow
    “Gray Zone” Training – Training in the “middle”
    Best use of your time with 3-4 days/week training
    Why "bonking" can make you go faster?
    Ice Baths
    Why I don't swim laps
    Should I run barefoot?
    Eating during training and competition
    What's the best way improve the comfort of my bike?
