Congratulations on your sub 4! I think the 175 mile goal at ATY is reasonable, but believe it or not, you are going to have to focus, and that can be hard to do in these short loop events when socializing, resting, eating, and sleeping are great temptations. It is MUCH easier on paper. Don't worry, I, among others, will be there to kick your butt if we see you slacking :). I can't wait to meet you in person! Juli Great report Christian!
