I have three main goals regarding my upcoming mountain bike
race season I am determined to finish in the top three in
northern California varsity high school overall mountain biking league and
finish in the top seven at state championships. Along with this I want to win a CCCX race before the end of
the school year and place in the top five of a US cup race. To accomplish these
goals I need to continue to train hard and to follow the lead of my coach, Mark
Deterline. Some interruptions that may occur are lack of motivation, mechanical
failures, injuries, and over-training. Luckily, I am taking all the safety
precautions necessary to stay healthy and fast. In order to accomplish my goals
I may need to seek help from my coach, Mark Deterline, for training advice, my
mechanic, Jake Otsuka, for bike support and maintenance, and my team, SRVMTB
club, for motivation. Yesterday, I accomplished the first part of my set of
goals and won a CCCX XC race in the junior expert category. I had the fastest time
of all expert categories and placed 4th in the pro division. So far
my season is going great and I look forward to continuing the hard work.
