Mike's story: National Senior Games

Basecamp athlete Mike Adsit shared his experience at the 2025 National Senior Games in Iowa.

A max 10 effort for me today on the 10k TT. All the gas I had! Finished 7th. Had a real slowdown on the turnaround because of a racer in front of me that braked and un-clipped. Grrrr. Lost 8-10 seconds and momentum. Pretty stiff headwinds on the return leg. A few compete or complete thought moments with 1.5 miles to go in the wind. Amber’s TT warmup routine, pre race, is so key for these time trials. 20k Road Race on Saturday. Thanks Coach Jim Pomeroy!
