Week of 1.6.13 to 1.12.13
Running - 88.6 miles (9 hours running)
Spinning - 75 miles (3 hours spinning)
Weight Training 2.5 hours (weights and core)
This past week was a good week of exercise but even better week for an incredible sponsor. This past week I was given the great opportunity to become a sponsored athlete for UltrAspire (www.ultraspire.net).
I found out about UltrAspire late in 2011 and started to learn more about them as 2012 rolled in. As most of you know I am a "gear addict" and LOVE new gear!!! I was amazed by the look and how simple the product line looked. No frills for me...just do your job and make it look easy. During the Bighorn 100 race I was running with Darcy Africa. I noticed she had an UltrAspire SPRY pack on during the race. It looked like it was riding so snug and easy on her. As most of you know Darcy is a BEAST and someone I seek advice from often to keep my ass in line.
As the year rolled on I was preparing for Wasatch 100 and was in bad need of a lightweight pack. I remember seeing Darcy rollin in her pack and seeked her input. Well needless to say with a VERY small nudge from Darcy just a day before the Wasatch 100 I bought my UltrAspire SPRY pack for the race. Usually I would not go with something new but it fit so well from trying it on I was not worried about it. I decided to wear the pack on the front 52 miles then change over. During that front 52 miles I feel in love with the pack. It rode so well, did not bounce, and held everything I needed. I was SOLD!!!
Since that time UltrAspire has become a staple of my gear. No matter the distance or race you don't often see my without their gear. From pacing for Clif Bar at 3:05 pace to daily runs it is there.
So to the UltrAspire Staff including Team Leader Krissy Moehl thank you for this incredible opportunity. I am truly honored and very humble.
2013 IS ROLLIN ON!!!
