Excited to announce coaching sponsor powered by @t Excited to announce coaching sponsor powered by @trainingpeaks for @madgravel #hemigravel p/b @laufcycling & off-road festival coming in hot Memorial Day weekend. 

I’m passionate about this event because it’s a venue & area I’ve raced, podiumed & trained for over a decade as well as all the offerings from gravel events, XC mtb, runs, kids programming & most of all it memorializes the life of Craig “The Hemi” Henwood. 

Head on over to link in bio for several dynamic (not static set it and forget it) training plans I’m launching specifically for this event that includes direct coach Q&A as well discounts on individual or group coaching plans if you want to rally your posse and tackle this one together!
