C-race - Repeat

I just read over my post from the other day and realized it wasn't up to snuff from the usual garbage I dribble out on this page. So, I'm going to leave that steaming lump up and add this re-update about my time in Gloucester (stop reading now if your are looking for something more exciting)

The day started off with frantic haste to get out hte door in time. Was pretty excited to be at my first CX race, especially one with such a large turnout. All the waitlisters got entered into the race without any problems (however the results page say otherwise). Got to the starting line late and was stuck too many rows deep. Rolled off and made it through all the course bottlenecks with no broken spokes or damage, witnessed a few crashes, some bold moves. The wheels stayed true, stayed clipped in when i had to and unclipped when I had to run, no serious asthma attacks, dust wasn't too bad yet. The laps just counted off with painful anticipation till I heard final lap. About time. I realized that I suck at running, running in sand, running up hill, pedaling uphill, and controlling the old ticker. It felt like I started in a pack of 100 people but it could have been less. I was pretty secure in pushing the bike through the turns and using as little brakes as possible, figured i would push the ESC through the turns and hope the tires hold. Maxxis Larsen Mimo's..awsome traction, crap rolling resistance. Finished 37th in the C-men group...it took about 45 minutes to straighten out the results page becuase they had my correct time but the wrong name. Turns out hte number I had was for someone who pre-registered but didn't show up. Long story short, finished in about 41 minutes. I was passsed by the top 3 in the womens group that lined up at 9am. If i improved my start...should of, would of, could of. Ah well. It was an awsome time. Wished I could have stunk it up on sunday but didn't have the time off. ALready looking at the calender for the next event. Hope to hit a few more before the snow flies, but that probably won't stop me either

If your curious, spent sunday picking pumpkins, apples and anything else at Conners Farm. Monday...was spent on Thayer street and brown university in Providence, quite the experience. Thayer street, a people watching goldmine. 20 miles on the road bike monday...legs are good, body is tired.
