Well wasn't planning on racing, but then a groupon for this race popped up so I jumped in. One guy took off like a bat out of hell and was rewarded by getting lost and not finishing. If I had known this I would have been a little more reckless on the downhills to beat the guy who won. He would pull away on the descent and I would make it all up on the climb. Last half mile was down switchbacks though so I said 2nd is as good as 3rd lets not break myself before TOU in 3 weeks. But gah he was actually in the lead. "Appropriated" many hammer gels and fizz tabs and won a holdey water bottle at the raffle so I think I made it out pretty good. Back to NY on Wednesday for my college cross country reunion weekend! |
