But it was Swenson who ended pulling away to secure the victory with a blistering final lap. After both riders taxed themselves on the final climb, Swenson reached the peak first and was able to finish strong PARK CITY FOOTBALL (0-0) Upcoming: Friday at 5:30 p.m., Red-White scrimmage — Dozier Field, Park City High School the rest of the descent, although he never felt comfortable. “Once I came out of single track I knew I had it. … It was technical and tight and because I couldn’t see him and didn’t know where he was, I was never able to relax,” Swenson said. “Anything could’ve happened last minute, whether it was a crash or a flat tire, and I would’ve lost it. It was definitely a little nerve-wracking because I thought I had it on the descent but I just had to stay dialed in the whole way to make sure.” Swenson traveled to Winter Park on the Wednesday before the competition, thus giving him plenty of rest time between his race the previous weekend and the championships that were awaiting him. The reason for the early arrival was to get acclimated to Winter Park’s altitude, giving him a solid three nights to get adjusted. “This may sound weird, but my only concern was just getting acclimated to the elevation and altitude. … If I could get acclimated the right way, I knew I would be able to do well and would be ready,” Swenson said. “I normally don’t have that big of a problem with the altitude because I grew up in Park City but with this being so high, it was the only thing I was concerned with.” For Swenson, his finish helps him quite a bit in his quest to qualify for the Olympics with team USA. Even if Team USA doesn’t get two selections for the upcoming Olympics, Swenson’s national championship victory holds him favorably in the eyes of the selection committee. “This shows more than anything that I’m ready to compete at the highest level with the best riders in the world,” Swenson said. “If the Olympics comes down to a selection, having the title of ‘national champion’ gives me some serious clout and will make the U.S. cycling panel really consider me. But still, I’m hoping we get two riders in.” After conquering his first goal of the season, Swenson is now looking ahead to the World Championships in Quebec the first weekend in September. “I’m definitely going to race one more time before worlds comes around, but I feel like with this win, I’m a different racer now,” Swenson said. “This was a huge confidence boost for me and has now given me a few extra points going into worlds.” PHOTO BY SHIMANO/JOE LAWWILL Keegan Swenson races on the downhill portion of the USA Cycling Mountain Bike National Championships pro men’s cross-country race in Winter Park, Colorado, on July 27.
