To say that Todd Wells has been killing it this year would be an understatement. So when he took the National Championship jerseys for both cross country and short track this past weekend in Granby, Colorado, we were super-stoked...but not all that surprised. Here is Todd’s report from the weekend.

This is definitely one of the best race reports I have ever written. I have always had bad luck at the National Championship races for some reason, but this weekend was just about perfect. I managed to win the cross-country title for the first time and the short track title in the same weekend on the brand new Specialized S-Works Epic 29er. My wife, parents, parents-in-law, and dog Winston were all there to share it with, too. It was just awesome.

Saturday was the XC and the second year in a row Nationals was contested at nine thousand feet in Colorado. It was a hot day with temperatures in the eighties, minimal shade and rough, dusty trails. This year I had a good block of almost five weeks to prepare at home, and I knew I needed to train higher than even the sixty five hundred feet of Durango if I wanted to be competitive.

A couple weeks back, the Clif Bar & Company creative team gave us—the people here at Clif HQ—a peek at the brand new booth that you’ll start seeing at all Clif events. So why not share? I grabbed Lisa and a camera, and she gave a little behind-the-scenes look at the design of the booth, and a sneak peek of the cool sustainable elements that you might not normally see—especially when it’s bursting with people at during packed events.

And what’s a Clif booth without a little thumb wrestling and bicep curling? Hopefully you’ll get out to an event and experience it for yourself very soon!

Have any awesome booth ideas? Drop us a comment and let us know!
