Sibu Endurance Test
About 10 days ago I let myself talk me into signing up for a mountain bike race. I regularly compete in triathlons but I've burned out on it for the year and wanted to get back to my roots. Mountain bike racing is especially hard on the body and mind. There is not a pelaton to draft off, no easy roll off the start line, no elbow pads to rest on. Mountain bike racing is bouts of gut-busting, lung-burning climbs followed by short descents that take technical skill, upper body endurance, and nerves of steel. Why I decided that 12 hours of this would be a good idea, I know not.
12 Hours of Sundance is an endurance race beginning at 7 am and concluding (if you can last) at 7 pm. The course is 7 miles long and includes over 1000' of climbing per lap. The most laps in 12 hours wins. The climbs are varied in difficulty and the descents are only moderately technical but include a ridiculous number of switchbacks. I expected to get 12 laps at best and maybe crack the top 10 finishers. By lap5, I thought that might be too tall an order for the day.
After lap 5, and during my first 5 minute pit (for mechanical tweaks, bottle exchange, and potty break) I downed a banana, some water, and a cocktail of Sibu caps. (2) Cardio Pros, (2) Ultimate Omegas, and (2) SBT Omega 7s. I did not want to get back on the bike. My heart rate average for the first 5 laps was about 172 bpm on the climbs. I was racing, for sure. It's amazing how comfortable that camp chair looked after 4 or 5 hours on the bike.
Nonetheless, I mounted my harbinger of pain and started lap 6. Though I struggled up the first climb, I began feeling better, and by the mid point of the 6th lap, I felt great! I was having fun. I was taking other riders down. I began to think "How can this be?" I thought of the caffeine...but I supplement with caffeine on long rides all the time and it does help a little, but I was amped! I thought of the Sibu caps. I have been reading lately about the benefits of powerful antioxidants and even Omegas WHILE exercising and not JUST as a daily supplement. It had to be the Sibu.
After about 9 laps, I pitted again. About 7 hours into it and I felt okay. I gave the bike to the mechanic to work his magic, tried to slam down a PB&J, to no avail, and opted to stick to my electrolyte/carbohydrate drink, gels, and 6 more Sibu caps. (2) Cardios, (2) Ultimates, and (2) Omega 7s. I thought that it would be enough to make it another lap or so before the darkness rolled in. (The time when all you can think about is the finish. Pain is a constant companion. The fun is gone. Survival is all that matters.)
1/2 a lap later, I began feeling good again. I started doing the math. "If I can maintain my lap times, I will get 14 laps...if...yeah right...4 more laps without falling off the pace? Not likely." I was in 6th or 7th place and hoped I could hang on to the top 10.
The last 3 hours were a blur. Those laps blended together as 1. I did not take any more pits. In fact the mechanic came right out onto the course to clean my drive train and apply a little lube while I exchanged bottles. Even if I wanted to, the support crew we had there (keeping me well informed of my trek up the standings) wouldn't hear of it. I was probably 2 laps from finishing and had moved into 4th. 3rd place was 8 minutes out. I thought there was no way I would catch him, but I was thankful for the encouragement. I did want to finish strong.
The second to last lap felt okay and I held my lap time. I lapped a few more guys, and that always puts an extra gear in the tranny.
At the end of lap 14 my crew literally threw a bottle and gel at me and pushed me through the scoring lane to begin my last lap. I had made up 4 minutes on 3rd place and if I could muster the will and stay consistent, I just might edge him out by the finish line. I had taken 1 more dose of Sibu caps the lap before and felt fatigued and sore (everywhere), but I was not really slowing down. It was really uncommon not to consistently slow down after more than 11 hours of racing. I can only attribute this to a properly timed tapering period before the race and the addition of the Sibu antioxidants, Omegas, and phenolics.
The last lap, my 15th, was all adrenalin...which is usually good for 5 seconds of goose chills at this point, but lasted the whole lap for me. I passed to take 3rd by the halfway point and was moving up on 2nd. I had him too. Then I got excited and crashed. Not a bad one, but it took enough time that I just couldn't reel him in on the final descent. I ended up 33 seconds out of 2nd place. I was not at all upset, though. I was psyched. My last lap was as fast as my first lap. I still can't believe it.
There was no way I should have been able to do that well. I thought 12 laps was a lofty expectation. I ended up missing the cutoff for lap 16 by only a minute. I honestly believe the Sibu supplementation was key in my success. I can't wait to try it on the next race. If all else comes together correctly, that will be in 3 weeks at 24 Hours of Moab...solo.
