UCI Puerto Rico MTB Cup

March 1, 2022

For the last few years, I’ve wanted to start my race season at these UCI Races in Puerto Rico. It seems that the timing was never right, that the logistics were too tricky, and that there was always some other plan on the books. This year, as I began to formulate my own calendar as … More UCI Puerto Rico MTB Cup

On-The-Bike Nutrition 101

February 22, 2022

Sometimes nutrition can just seem so complicated. I think that’s because everyone thinks that everyone else know what’s going on so no one really talks about it. I think that the general progression for most athletes consists of experiencing their first ever spectacular bonk, recognizing the need for nutrition, roaming the internet for all kind … More On-The-Bike Nutrition 101

UCI Puerto Rico Tropical Challenge

February 21, 2022

The first race of the season has always brought me a lot of nerves. The anticipation alone is enough to make you start sweating. This year felt different though. With a new Privateer Program and a new name (Hannah Otto) it feels like there is just so much possibility ahead that I can’t help but … More UCI Puerto Rico Tropical Challenge

MTB Marathon National Championship

October 24, 2021

A little bittersweet lining up at the MTB Marathon National Championship this weekend. This is a race that I’ve always wanted to do so I was absolutely thrilled to finally tow the line. At the same time, it would be the final race of the season, which is bitter-sweet in and of itself. If it … More MTB Marathon National Championship

Oz Trails Epic Rides

What a weekend at the Oz Trails Epic Rides Event! It had been two years since lining up for one of these events because of the Covid-19 hiatus. It felt so good to be able to line up on these start lines again. First off, the Fat Tire Crit on Friday night. Fat Tire Crit: … More Oz Trails Epic Rides

SnowShoe World Cup: Race Recap

September 20, 2021

Way up high on a mountain in seemingly the middle of nowhere West Virginia, the USA mountain bike fans put on a huge show this weekend. Being almost 3 hours from the nearest airport, I always wonder how many people will really make the journey to Snowshoe, but every year I’m amazed at just how … More SnowShoe World Cup: Race Recap

Race Report: Lenzerheide World Cup

September 6, 2021

I recently listened to a podcast that said that the feeling of ‘awe’ greatly decreases any feelings of nervousness. Maybe that’s why I felt strangely calm in the moments leading up to the Lenzerheide World Cup. I soft pedaled on the rollers in the start box as a small smile formed in the corners of … More Race Report: Lenzerheide World Cup

Race Recap: World Championship

August 30, 2021

Standing in the start box at the World Championship is a surreal experience. The tension is palpable. I took a moment to look at the athletes around me. Everyone looked incredibly nervous. It makes sense. Every person who is standing on the start line at the World Championship has dedicated a tremendous amount to be … More Race Recap: World Championship

Leadville 100: Race Report

August 16, 2021

It was truly an honor to get to compete in the Leadville 100 MTB race. This race has been around since 1994, before I was even born. Standing on the start line the morning of the race I felt a sort of deference. I tried to engage all of my five senses as I stood … More Leadville 100: Race Report

Race Report: Belgian Waffle Ride

July 19, 2021

I’ve been trying to write this blog all morning. After yesterday’s 135 mile gravel race, with 11,000 feet of climbing, and an early morning travel home, it has taken some serious energy to move from a horizontal to vertical position again and find something my body was happy to eat. Simply put, I’m totally exhausted. … More Race Report: Belgian Waffle Ride
