What Our Racers Have to Say

  • "Lydia and Race Rite helped me prepare for my best ever result in Rebecca’s Private Idaho gravel grind, AND turn it into way more than a race result. The re-thinking, re-focusing, gaining confidence, and finding meaning that came along with the work was worth way more than any one result. I highly recommend it!!

    Steve Thompson

  • “When training for a long endurance event, you find yourself focusing on the end goal every single day. Race rite helped me not only focus on that end goal but also appreciate the overall process and the day of the event. As you’re performing, it’s important to remember to be present and race rite helped me stay present in the moment during my race day.”

    David Missal
