Hey Internet Peeps,
Sorry about the delayed race report, some great things take time. Numbers first! I placed 13 with a time of 59 minutes and some change. I really just wanted to finish sub 1 hour and I did by the hair of my chin.
That out of the way, I have to say you couldn’t have asked for a better cycling day. The trail had dried up and was perfect. The climbs were not as daunting as last year, so I guess all that running over the winter worked for something. I had a small tussle and rubbed elbows trying to pass, but no crashes. Charles on the other hand…
We had a great team presence there with a ton of riders representing. For the future I’d look at getting a spot on team row, we had a campsite but it was farther back.
All in all, it was a great race and I did way better than last year. Looking forward to more punishment.
