Started slow but kept sight of a small pack that passed me in the first 1/2 mile. Picked them off and sprinted to the finish. Good way to end the season.

N/A Gave it everything I had. Time sucked but effort was good.
Post race
Warm down:

Wait, wait, wait for race results. It took 3D 1.5 hours to post group results. I wish I was making this up but I hung on thinking I may been on the AG podium.

Event comments:

Props to 3D for giving out some good swag post-race.

And the bad-> they started breaking down the corral & everything else before the race was over + no security on the corral (I rode out without passing any 3D employee or volunteer).
