wow. i am not sure if i am more physically or mentally tired. i am going to keep this short since i am tired... i will most likely not get to my race report until the morning.
the race today was... hard. it was as we expected. i will save all the details for the report- but it was a lot of fun. even though i am too tired to show it- i had a heck of a lot of fun up there and was happy with how i raced. i mis-read the sprint finish and moved up too soon... but i was in the mix. i had to throw elbows and i have a new definition of aggressive sprint... but i LIKE it. i think that i have a healthy dose of crazy, since i enjoy getting up there and going for the line.
i am not sure where i finished, but i think that i was top 10-15. and the team did great... we all stayed rubber side down, which can be quite the challenge in a field like this. there were something along the lines of 150+ riders. i have never had a race be SO hard to move up in. thankfully- i was informed that on a course like this, since there is nothing selective- you can hang out for a while before needing to move up. that was good for me since i was sitting around 100 riders back for a lap and a half before i caught a break on jojo from raligh-lifeforce’s wheel... she moved me right up to the front. but for a lap an a half- i was buried with no hope of moving. but i did not stress and just worked to save as much energy as i could. ok, for now- i am going to check my email and go to bed. i am POOPED!
but- this ends another great day. a good hard race to put me to sleep. i have some good 411 for the race report about how great the team was... and how much horsepower they have. it is such a great experience to race with them. anyway, tata for now.
