Green Mountain Stage Race

And, yeah, he did really well starting out.

So in his first year, he finished fourth overall at Green Mountain Stage Race.

He ended up winning the crit there.

And he got his Cat 3 upgrade after his first year of racing.

And here is what ended up happening.

Here is how much stronger he got.

So in 2024, he did Green Mountain stage race in the Cat 3s.

And I believe he finished somewhere around the top 15 or so.

It's probably like 15, 12, 12 years old now.

Uh, it's GMSR bros.

And it was like our first original, um, you know, trip up to, to Vermont for, uh, GMSR road race stuff.

And, um, anyways, I said in that chat, I was like, should I forego the, like the puffy? Um, I was going to leave the puffy and something else.

Cause I'm like, what's like, it's only going to be the low of like 55.

And that's the things that have been limiting amateur athletes.

The tidbit that I want to share is that at the Green Mountain Stage Race, I can't remember the name of the main climb on the road race, but the average power output for the Cat 4 race was 4.8 watts per kilogram for about 10 minutes.

Cat 4, 4.8 watts per kilogram.

10 years ago, that would have been, you could have hung and maybe you would have won the Cat 3 race.
