Leadville 100MTB Adventure + Bonus Leadville 10KM Run I have to begin this race story with the background of how this race came to be. Arguably the most famous and hardcore mountain biking race in the US, this isn’t just like a sign up and pay money and go race situation. With it’s fame comes qualifying to get into this race or alternatively, the lottery. In a world that seems a distant past in late 2019, pre-covid, I had a crazy idea one night to just throw Kit and I’s name into this said lottery. Now from what I had heard, people spent years entering the lottery and not making it, so it was just a whim I never thought anything would come from. Little did I know… The night the lottery results went live I was in shock to see both Kit and my name flash across the screen. Apparently this lottery is read live in Leadville, but is also live-streamed online for all those entrants to see. I was in disbelief, as was Kit, and with that it was decided- I just we had to buy some mountain bike
