Lee-Ann winning Best All-Around Rider
Congratulations to Steel City Endurance Athlete Lee-Ann Beatty, racing for GPOA Cannondale, who is currently leading the Pennsylvania Elite Women’s competition for Best All-Around Rider (BAR). BAR is a season long points competition, and there are separate categories for beginning women racers (Category 4 racers) and “Elite” Racers (Categories 1,2 & 3).
Lee-Ann upgraded from Cat 4 to Cat 3 last year after winning the State Criterium Championship for Cat 4. Leading the Elite competition which consists of riders in both category levels above her is a great accomplishment, above & beyond her expectations for the season.

Welcome
Hi, my name is Suzanne and welcome to Steel City Endurance. I started Steel City Endurance to put into practice everything I have learned about training and sports physiology over the past several years of doing triathlons. As a physician and athlete, I have a unique perspective on training – both the science of training as well as finding time to train.
I am constantly reading about sports physiology, coaching and training in addition to following my own training plan as well. I understand how difficult it is to find time to workout in addition to spending time with your family, home and job comittments.
