2020 North Carolina-North Georgia Cycling Camp Success
The North Carolina-North Georgia Cycling Camp is a wrap! This camp was perhaps the most adventurous of them all and had some of the best paved and unpaved roads I’ve ever done in the area. Unpaved roads that made for excellent routes to give riders a view and taste of some of the most challenging and scenic spots in the southwest North Carolina and Tennessee border area. Riders covered 5 days and over 25,000 feet of climbing. The trip had some new up and comer junior riders including a 9 year old that pedaled every single mile of the ~230 mile camp with over 25 miles of gravel roads. Congratulations to all of the riders who came and to @leepa17 for his SAG help.

The Special Edition 8.5 Mile Time Trial Course is this Sunday (7-5-20)!
The Special Edition Time Trial is coming up this Sunday! This is an 8.5 mile course on one of of the nicest cycling roads in Florida. It features rolling hills, orange groves, lakes, and bends and turns to offer a full time trial experience. This road actually feels like a bike trail to start with a one lane road then opens up to two lanes when it goes out into the orange groves. We are highly recommending Pre-Registration and encourage car-pooling as parking will be limited. We will also have a registration limit of 40 riders max.
View more information below as this is a different location from the normal time trial:

Lifetime records crushed!
She’s at it again! And this time for the first time since the start of training in 2018, she tied her best FTP power/weight ratio ever, finally surpassing her best 45’ all time power record @236 watts last week and this week hit her 3rd best 30’ all time best power. These are FTP numbers she last saw during the training to win the 2018 Masters National Road Race Championships in Augusta, GA!
This is what happens when you put a natural born Time Trial athlete and runner on a trainer using Zwift for the first time🏆Those that are used to pedaling the entire duration of a ride and are driven to push it from start to finish and do not let up tend to really reek the benefits of indoor training on Zwift. On the flip side, the cyclists that depend on a group, draft, coast, and sit in the pack tend to really get a taste of what its like to continuously pedal throughout the ride. The fact that there are no interruptions and distractions in the workout allows for her to hit power numbers she’s never seen before.
Keep up the hard work Jeanine!
Find The Champion Within
The faces of anticipation. The faces of determination. The faces of being on the edge and knowing you are closing in on your record and have to finish the job. You’ve been told exactly what you need to do to execute your goal and have to find it from within to pull it off. It’s the part of that effort that it is getting painful but the pain gets masked by the adrenaline of knowing: the faster you pedal, the faster the effort with be over and that the distance is not changing 🌬
You know that the suffering will be temporary and that it is for a good cause and will soon be over. You are living for the NOW! You know that hours and days will go by when there is no going back to change what you are doing right now so you know emptying your tank and going for it is the only option.
This is the moment when you have to look inside yourself to give every ounce of effort you’ve got and FIND THE CHAMPION WITHIN!🏆 #perezluhacoaching #findthechampionwithin #wherechampionsaremade
