Winter Training Update

This time of year, most people can’t wait for race season to start—but I’ve actually been enjoying the off-season more than ever. Without the stress of packing, traveling, jet lag and time zone changes, I get to focus on real growth: longer endurance days, heavier lifts, and experimenting with new training methods, nutrition, and recovery tools. It’s the part of the year where the biggest improvements happen, quietly, consistently, and without interruption. And with Chase and Lucy keeping things chaotic...

Meet Lucy!

I said I would get back to talking about training this month… but that can wait, because I have more puppy photos to share. Last month, I introduced my new puppy, Chase. Although he was doing really well after six weeks in his new home, I started thinking ahead to next race season and all the travel that comes with it. The last thing I want is for him to feel stressed or lonely when I’m away — so I decided...

Meet Chase!

The big news this month is actually very tiny - My Toy Fox Terrier puppy Chase! He weighs next to nothing but has a big appetite and an even bigger attitude if you don't share your food with him. He's catching onto my training routine and developing his own very quickly. He's already doing.... Sprint intervals - doing laps around my house when the zoomies kick in Hill repeats - up and down the staircase he needs to get on and off...

2025 World Championships Recap

It's been a few weeks now and this photo basically sums up my 2025 World Championships in Ronse, Belgium. P-5 in the Time Trial. P-5 in the Road Race. P-5 in the Team Relay My first event was the Time Trial.

Love the process!

In 3 weeks I'll be heading to Ronse, Belgium for the 2025 UCI Para-Cycling Road World Championships! As much as I love racing, one of my favorite times is when I can get long durations of uninterrupted training in. These are the times where I can really see my progression. The past 2.5 months since getting home from the World Cups have been just that. No travel, no racing, no distractions... just full focus on aiming to get better everyday. To...

2025 World Cup 2 Race Recap

This is where I made my World Cup debut in 2023 and was my first race ever on the Team USA roster. I finished P-7 in the Time Trial, P-6 in the Road Race. I came back in 2024 with Team PossAbilities support and finished P-4 in the Time Trial, P-3 in the Road Race. Getting on the podium last year gave me a good feeling coming back here in 2025! 2025 World Cup #2 in Maniago, Italy - ...

2025 World Cup 1 Race Recap

If you read my March blog, you know I didn't qualify for the Team USA World Cup Roster despite my past 2 years of being the top ranked men's handcyclist in the country. The good news is that I have the amazing support of Team PossAbilities which allowed me to go to Europe, compete in both World Cups, do my thing and secure my spot on the USA World Championships roster... and I got to do it all in our...

World Cup Season is here!

I'm currently in Ostend, Belgium to begin the 2025 World Cup Season! If you read my previous blog, you know the US Paralympics Time Trial in Huntsville, Alabama last month didn't go how I was expecting it to. I can't help but notice a pattern the past few years of myself under performing my own expectations at our domestic selection events. The good news is that I've also shown a pattern of performing my very best power numbers at the World...

Season Opener struggles

Last week I headed to Huntsville for the U.S. Paralympics Cycling Time Trial. This course has been good for me in previous years so I was very excited to come back and show the progress I've been making during this off season. A quick 12 hour drive from Pennsylvania to Alabama on Tuesday, then the next 3 days to get some warmer outdoor rides in on the course. Over these days I was feeling amazing and fully prepared to have...

Training indoors

Over the past few weeks many racers headed to Florida and Arizona for team camps and the popular season opener races. This year I decided to stay home and focus on uninterrupted training as I build towards my first race of 2025 on March 29th in Huntsville, Alabama. While Pennsylvania is not good weather to be training outdoors during the winter months, I have set everything up so I can do all of my training and recovery work right here,...
