    2025 LT100 Race Recap

    Dusty conditions. Gusty Winds. Record Times. New Tech. This Leadville Trail 100 MTB had a lot to remember it by. We cover it all and then some in our annual Race Recap Show. We kick things off by checking in with racers at the startline. Were there nerves? Yes. Was there optimism? Sure. We then go out on course and out to Twin Lakes Alternate which was the busiest it's ever been. Fatty talks about his new, duo bladder system that provides water and energy gel. We also hear from a racer who got Siri involved in his feed zone strategy. Drop bars were a big topic that get addressed both from a rider's perspective and from an industry expert. There was a new dream chaser on course and we talked to him and his day of passing the masses.  Finally we wrap things up by highlighting the finish times and stories of the racers who have played a part in this show.

    How to Maintain Speed with Nate Whitman

    We're out of time for the big gains. The training is done. But between now and race day we can find ways to save time on the Leadville course. One of those ways is to maintain your momentum even when the course tries to slow you down. In this episode we will emphasize some basic mountain biking skills and overlay them onto some crucial spots of the Leadville course: The top of Kevins, the Pipeline Switchbacks, the Columbine descent through the trees and that hard left at the bottom of the Blvd climb. To guide us through these sections and to talk about the skills needed, we have invited back Leadville veteran Nate Whitman. Nate is going for his 23rd finish this year. Nate has four top tens and three sub-7 hour finishes. But he also knows this race as a 10+hour finisher. And he has helped dozens of others - including our own Hottie - get involved with and get to know the Leadville Trail 100. In addition to finding us some speed on course, Nate is also on hand to answer some listener submitted questions.

    Nailing Your Taper for Leadville and Race Rules Update

    There’s a lot to training for an event like Leadville: The miles, the intervals, the weeks of wondering if you’re getting it right. But what about those last couple weeks. For this year we’re talking about the days between July 26th and August 9th. This is the time most coaches will outline a training taper. The idea sounds straight foward: back off all the miles, keep some intensity, and allow your body to reap the benefits of all that training. Yet it’s so easy to get it wrong and go to the line with something less than what we are truly capable of. Well to help us get it right we have called back Season 5 coach Cody Waite who is going to spell out how to Nail Your Taper for Leadville. As always, thanks for listening and we will see you at the Start Line! Coach Cody is at: waiteendurance.com

    Fast Tires for Leadville

    When it comes to the Leadville Trail 100 MTB Race, tires are the most hotly debated tech topic. The participants' page and other forums are littered with discussions on what tire to run, what tire is best, what tire is the lightest, and so on. These discussions can be somewhat beneficial but what most of them lack is real data. Well we found one tech head who is putting XC tires to the test to come up with actual numbers that characterize a tires’ rolling performance.    John Karrasch of Cahaba Cycles is our guest and expert for this episode. John has been on a quest to find the fastest off-road tires. Some of the tires he’s been testing are gravel tires but most are the kinds of tires a Leadville Racer would run: XC mountain bike tires. The Vittoria Peyote, the Continental Race King and Dubnital, and the Maxxis Aspen and Aspen ST are all tires John has tested in the field. He’s been feeding GPS, power, speed, weight, and wind resistance data into a program to come up with rolling resistance figures.    We’re not gonna lie, this is pretty heady stuff. But by the end of the interview we boil it down to the tires that roll the fastest and hopefully point Leadville racers to a handful that will do best at Leadville.    Mentions in this  episode:    John’s Instagram - flexfitbyjohn   Rolling resistance effect on power and speed - gribble.org

    S7E25: Tales from the Trail, 2024 Edition

    After the race, it's time to share stories. While we can't tell everyone's, we CAN share quite a few. In this episode, we hear from nervous racers before the gun goes off (and how their races went), how the new course segments, shuttling and crewing rules worked out, have a great finish-line conversation with the LT100 racer on a handbike, talk with the first winners of the LT100, get to know the two people who have finished all 30 of the LT100MTB races, and (believe it or not) more.
