Age Group Rank = 0/

Pre-race routine:

A little coffee and Power Harvest Bar.

Event warmup:

A lot of riding nice and easy to warm up, then a few spurts of intervals to get my HR up. Race was VERY close to my home (~1 1/2 miles away) so I actually rode home and back a few times to pick up forgotten gloves, use the bathroom, etc.

Nothing.

Post race

Warm down:

Easy riding for 5-10 minutes or so, drank lots.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing.

Event comments:

Very simple put together casual thing. Was not closed to traffic, but there isn't usually much traffic out there that time of day. I was very surprised they actually gave out awards, I just thought it was the club's thing just so you could see how you're doing. But being first overall female I won a $30 gift certificate to my LBS (not bad for a $5 entry fee investment!)
