Are you ready for arguably the best weekend on the ECCC calendar? Army spring classic is near. There is a race for everyone’s taste with a RR, CR, ITT and TTT. The ITT is one for climbers and is certainly one of the toughest I’ve ever done.
For those who have never been the ITT will be held inside the beautiful West Point campus which is an experience in itself. If you for whatever reason (usually unfortunate) have a problem during the RR, you get a lift back to the start in an awesome army car. Apparently there is a new CR course this year… all this info available through ECCC:

We will be staying at Jess’ house which is in New Jersey about 40 minutes south of the race. Reminder, the Monday is election day so there is an opportunity to go out on Monday morning an conquer the great Bear Mountain which is on our way home and return later that day. Or we can still head back Sunday so that Monday can be used for homework/studying (I forget what this is already). OR a combination thereof depending on interest.
Looking forward to seeing some pain faces!
Mike
