I have only been cycling for 2 years. I was a runner before. I was looking to cross train. I found a great group of friends and now this is the result. 10,008 miles for the year. I am looking to enter racing this year. Most of my miles are fast rides with the people that race. I am starting to place on the sprint sections that we do. So the only logical next step is to enter racing. Cat 5

I did a few crit races for the first time last summer. Holy hell it was torture and I did awful but I'm looking forward to going back. My goal this year is not to get lapped. 🙂

With the number of miles you're putting in I expect you will do good.
 
A HUGE achievement! I feel great when I can get over 2,000 per year!

A bit of advice from a guy in his 32nd year of cycling - if you want to start racing and have good results, you'll need to start focusing on when to peak and when to rest. Nobody can be on all the time, and you'll ride yourself into the ground if you try. Oh, and don't forget to keep telling yourself cycling is fun.

Everyone keeps telling me rest is as important at the training.
I take one day off a week. Sometimes I run on an off day. I actually do think it is fun!!!!
