What limited your ability to perform faster:

I actually thought this was a good race for me. There weren't many competitors, and there were only two of us women over 50. The other woman was awesome -- she won Masters! So I settled for Grandmasters. :)

Event comments:

I was surprised at the low turnout. This is a very good race, and I hope that they continue to do it!
