Leaving Simple Behind: Why Not It's as Simple as Running or Swimming for a Change?

Beschreibung

There is a freedom to cycling that keeps you coming back. It doesn't have to be a long ride or an exotic location for cyclists to want to strap on their shoes and head out the door. Janet Christiansen dedicated herself to competitive racing, endurance events, triathlons, and endless miles on the open road for over thirty-five years. This book is as much about the specific events as it is about the journey, and how the journey keeps changing through the years.

Autor

Janet Christiansen graduated from Cornell University in 1983 with a B.S. in Biochemistry. She started a doctoral program in Pharmacology at Cornell and began competing in sanctioned bike races, culminating in a tenth-place finish in the 1988 National Road Race. After leaving her doctoral program and moving to California in 1989, she began competing in Ironman triathlons, then ultra-endurance cycling. Her competitive cycling career culminated in two Race Across America solo finishers, and her last event was in 2015. Somewhere along the way, she settled into software engineering until retiring in May 2020. Her latest passion is sport climbing, but she continues riding recreationally on San Diego's rugged inland roads.
