100 Miles Uphill for Kailey’s Krew

2012_Blog_Banner_-_Saddle_Up

Once again, Trent Thompson challenged the mountains in Colorado in the Leadville Trail 100 Mountain Bike Race on August 11, 2012.  This is the race of all races. One hundred miles across the high-altitude, extreme terrain of the Colorado Rockies. Created for only the most determined athletes. Starting at 10,152 feet and climbing to 12,424 feet, they are challenged to catch their breath — while the views try to take it away.

This year, Trent finished the race 15 minutes faster than last year, although it was tough going.  But as Trent says, it’s not as tough as what families go through when they have a seriously ill child.  Click on the Donate link to the left to donate to Kailey’s Krew – Pedal of Hope and help those families.
