Seagull Circuit race. Pretty much a crit. It was hot. Warming up I put ice everywhere down my kit, not sure if it even helped. Got dropped after 2 laps, as per usual which is very annoying and made me kinda mad. So I rode the rest of the race "solo" and when I say "solo" I mean I pulled a 14 year old girl along with me who then out sprinted me at the end because she pulled for *maybe* .5 miles the entire race which had a nice stretch with a solid headwind I had to fight. Not even salty about it though. After 20 min I was thinking of stopping but I didn't. Average hr was 191, max 204. I'm just annoyed with the whole thing. It was very sunny and hot, 98 degrees but probably felt like 105. At least we got to go to the YMCA for free afterwards and swim. The outdoor pool was very warm but it still felt nice.
