    There’s nothing more exciting than the morning of race day! I rode through Kansas on a cross country ride across America when I was 19 years old and it was amazing to get off on dirt roads and get off the highway away from cars! Congrats! You go, girl.

    Love this girl ! She is so positiv, everytime laughing and she has such perfect teeth that her smile is amazing. Love her workouts from the first video on youtube with only a few hundred followers. I only found out very late who she is and what a big number in sports she is. All the best from Germany, Heather. Excuse my english ;-)

It’s awesome how EF Eduction now have the alt tour for their riders, bringing world tour talent straight in to the gravel scene. Great video guys 👊🏻

    Well done! Just noticing, about 3500' climbing first 120 miles, but then about 5000' last 80! That's not flat. That dang luck factor has to be next level agonizing and exciting. Trying to maximize the benefits of drafting on surfaces and conditions as that is something else. There must be such respect and confidence within the groups.

    • @heatherjacksonracing
      @heatherjacksonracing  2 года назад

      Thanks so much Gary🙏🏼🙏🏼 Yeah that course is fr sure not flat and the last 80 are a beast💪🏼 Gravel racing is next level fun, exciting.....so much to learn in terms of equipment, tactics, etc. Can't wait for the next one🤗🤗🤗🤗 Thanks so much for watching and for supporting our channel, means so much to Wattie and I🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    Heather you are amazing!! 200miles... wow just wow... I just recently added one gravel tour per week to my training plan (30-60KM) and my road cycling has improved by a lot...it is sooooo much harder but sooo much more fun!!! are you riding tubeless btw?

    • @heatherjacksonracing
      @heatherjacksonracing  2 года назад +1

      Thank you so much Lisa🤗🤗🤗🙏🏼❤ Gravel riding will really help with that cycling strength keep up the great work! Yes, I ride tubeless both on road and off road.

  • @MarkInArizona
    @MarkInArizona 2 года назад

    Gravel racing is fun as you are learning! Just curious if you can leverage the strength aspects as a result of the gravel riding to help offset the swimming time loss when competing at Tri? This Fall/Winter you might be doing more double-Lemmon or Everest'ing of Lemmon attempts to build the strength to turn even bigger gears for a +mph advantage. Taking 5 seconds out of every mile at Kona results in just over nine minutes time advantage. (Question is how to do it without compromise to your run itself.)

    • @heatherjacksonracing
      @heatherjacksonracing  2 года назад

      Hi Mark🤗🤗🤗Gravel is so much fun, and lots of learning on the equipment side👌🏼For now I'm using gravel to build strength and to enjoy getting out on my bike and exploring new routes. In terms of swimming.....Fuck Swimming!😂😂😂in all seriousness I've spent so much time working on my swim over the years and have had super minimals gains+compromised my bike and run. That being said, I'm getting back to basics and making sure I'm cycling and running at my best while limiting my losses in the water. In terms of compromising the run with bike strength work.....its always a push and pull that we all try and manage. I've always gone for the tougher, hillier courses where it come down to bike and run strength instead of pure speed. Thanks so much for watching and supporting our channel🙏🏼
