what type of racining? and what level if applicable

I am a Cat 4 Road Racer and also do Time Trials and Cyclocross (Cat 4)

why do you race?

I love being competitive, and pushing myself to do my best. Some of why I race is also because I am pushed to do so by my husband (in a good way).

when did you start?

Last year I decided that I would try 5 road races and 1 cross race. I ended the season with 41 races all together. I think I got bitten by the racing bug...

How supported do you feel in this journey? Do you have a group you train with, or just your SO, or...

I have SO MUCH support! My DH is awesome - we train together and go to races together (and race together on our tandem!). I also have a really great friend to train and race with, and my club has an awesome women's program that includes coaching and some great mentors. I kind of wish my parents were a little more supportive, but they see this as taking time away from them instead (han-grrl - they live in Perth - maybe I need to find some races up there )

Name ONE thing that would make your journey better

Winning! Just kidding. I think meeting my goals is important - I want to upgrade to a Cat 3 in 'Cross this year...
