wanted to start off very slow to ensure that I had some mojo left for the end of the race. it was VERY difficult to do this, i had to keep slowing myself down.

rode with a guy for most of it, he pushed my pace a bit higher than i might have to start with, but at the end i took off, i felt AWESOME climbing the hills and rode the last 3-4 miles at 21+. the goal was to ride in the 17's we'll see what the split was when it's posted.

Comments:

met a fellow du chick during the run and stuck with her. whe kept the pace slower than i might have but it was probably for the best as i felt 'fairly' strong til the end, i actually had a little speed at the end as i took off over the last couple hundred meters and beat her by a minute. she made the run so much more fun!
