Pls see my answer from the 26th.

I listened to the Fattie & Hottie podcast with Tamira Jemlink as their guest. Extremely informative and mind-blowing how intricate it is to organize this event. I witnessed a smaller version of the big race during the Stage race and, as Tamira made clear, it's a lot more involved to run the big race with so many more people.
I loved experiencing the vibe, excitement and camaraderie of all the racers, and even though I've mtn biked a bunch I've never raced so it was an eye opener and thrilling to experience.
I can't wait to have a go at the race myself and see if it's true what Fattie & Hottie pronounce (well Hottie) at the start of each podcast: "That the Leadville 100 mtn bike race is the easiest, shortest, most relaxing stroll around the tiny hills of the Leadville country side."
I keep listening Fattie and Hottie to learn everything about the race!!!
