Event warmup:

Same 5-mile ride from the middle school to the start line. Had a friend start 30-seconds behind me, so we hung together and rode around before we went. Her boyfriend left a few minutes before my husband, and they both left about 55 minutes before we went off.

What would you do differently?:

I wonder if I can ramp it up sooner. I rode the first 5-miles or so pretty conservatively. That allowed my 1-minute back person to catch me, although she couldn't drop me. We rode together for much of it. If I played a little "harder to get" - I wonder if that would have done me good. As it was, she was second to my third (and my friend was first).
