"Lots of reasons why I look up to my big brother, but this just might take the cake: @taylorshiffrin ran into friend from years ago @cristhianravelo, and they decided to meet up on the bike trails at some point…maybe even a race?? Flash forward through 6ish weeks of “weekend training” (in the midst of a full time data science job)…a few 30mi rides and a couple 85mi… Cristhian and Taylor finish all 105–yes thats ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE—miles of the Leadville 100. ON A MOUNTAIN BIKE😵😵😵. AT 10,000ft🙀,"
