Ben takes Second at Worlds Hardest Half! |
|
 Ben Schloegel took second place overall, at The Worlds Hardest Half in Auburn, CA on May 18th. The Worlds Hardest race course is widely considered the toughest on the planet. Athletes tackle the course via a point to point bike course that has a substantial amount of climbing both technical and tough as well as brutal heat, then finish on one of the toughest and most exposed run course on the planet. Schloegel was bested only by cycling legend Steve Larsen of Bend, Oregon who he will meet again at IM CDA.

Camp Zoot Ultra Camp Report |
|
 I just returned from the Zoot Ultra Team Camp in Carlsbad, CA read all about it at my blog www.benschloegel.com. The camps was great, everyone at Zoot was very good to us and I have all sort of cool new gear to race and train with. The team is stacked this coming season, we have some of the best age groupers and top pro talent around. We had two athletes from the team in the top 10 at Ironman California 70.3 last weekend, Brandon and Amy Marsh. Both are class acts on and off the race course and should be forces this coming season.
