Ever wondered how you can launch into your most fit Summer ever?! The answer is easy, but the deed is a real challenge.. and it begins on April 1st! 😊 For those who may not know what I'm talking about... begins TOMORROW! THE RULES: 10 miles of cycling per day OUTSIDE, every single day of April, 5 miles if mountain biking. You can post GPS evidence, or a "photo of the day"...It isn't required, but is a fun way to see that other people are going out in the awful weather, at inconvenient times. If you wanna see what people are doing, and where they're going, join the strava club!

Hey Gang! I've not been engaging with the medias this year, so my apologies if you've messaged me and I haven't responded. I blinked- it is now September! Somewhat regrettably, I will not be able to host a 2024 version of Ascension Vertical Race. I have EVERY intention of doing a 2025 version. It will not be bigger or better, but rather quirkier, funnier, craftier, harder and sillier than ever before. All credits from last year's storm stuff will still be of use, of course. Thanks for understanding, and sorry to miss you all! 2025 DATE TO COME BY END OF 2024! See you out there! kp

Well, just getting all my rides uploaded after 50+ hours without power! How'd everyone do this week?! Thursday was... a good day to get gainzed-up! Nice work, everyone! Keep on keepin on!

, Let's address the elephant in the room. This challenge is about building fitness and pushing your personal boundaries...not putting yourself unnecessarily in harm's way. If you are used to riding in snow, have a safe place to do so, and WANT to give it a go over the next few days, do what you can! If conditions warrant an indoor day, so be it. My only hope is that IF that happens, you resume on Friday, after the big storm passes. Just because you miss a day, doesn't mean you're out! Looking forward to seeing those snowy riding pics. Be safe, all! kp

Ascension Vertical Race UPDATE:

With the impending thunder storms tomorrow, and the forecast of "heavy and torrential downpours" in the afternoon (morning shows less than 50% chance of rain), we are going to run a 3 Hour option only. 6 hour racers will be refunded the difference, UNLESS they want to push off until next year.

Registration will be from 7a to 830a. Arrive in time for Arts N Crafts bib time! Bring your own bottle for hydration- we will have coolers with water and Gatorade, as well as the first Halloween candy of the year for you :) Can't wait to see you all! Don't hesitate to message me with any questions!

Had to laugh at this one. Our policy is: " You always leave feeling better than when you came in." If that's not the case... get a hold of either myself or Amber :)

Hey, gang! We are working on nailing down a class schedule for Summer :). 8am Saturday Total Body Strengthening with Amber is set. Tentatively planning a yoga class, and cycling as well. Here is what I want to know- what days and times are convenient? Thanks!

Congrats to KPF ultra-endurance athlete .suis.tatianna for her SECOND big-course multi-day win and fastest known time in the last 9 months. We had no idea what that first year would do all those years back! Wowee!!

The / collabo ride this morning was a blast! Ice cream at was amazing and well-timed on this challenging route. Thanks so much to all who came out!
