I have been reading Shanna’s blog where you details her training and race schedule. She appears to be living in Lubbock but travels to many places to race. She has raced in the RAAM at least twice according to the pictures. If you wan t glimpse in the daily life of an athlete in training follow her blog.

An excerpt from today’s post:

“I went to see Gramps before my mountain bike ride.  I wanted it to be a little warmer.  I got on my bike for a 4 hour mountain bike ride.  I started out feeling great and strong.  i did my warm up loop that usually takes me 18 minutes in about 12.  I then went on to ride all the technical sections that i hardly ever ride.   I rode all of them and did come of the bike some but not much.  i had pretty much rode the obstacle when i came off.  i was just unclipping out of habit.  I was making my motercycle noises and usual sound effects when i came up on some teenagers walking. ”

Later Shanna writes a bout eating a full steak dinner. This is more than I can eat. she must create a supreme appetite.
