Top Tips to Thrive at FoCo Fondo, Featuring Source Endurance

FoCo Fondo takes place July 21st, 2024, at about 5000 feet and tops out at just shy of 9000 feet on the longest route. We chatted with Source Endurance coach and owner Adam Mills, MSED, RCEP about best practices on riding/racing in the heat, heat acclimation, riding and racing at altitude, pacing best practices, and fueling. Obviously it's tailored towards FoCo Fondo specifics but the practices can be used well beyond FoCo Fondo specifically.
