Event: DINO Mission 4hr/18hr
 

DINO MISSION 18hr in Brownstown, IN with the Midwest team of Cory and Chuck. Got 2nd to Alpine Shop after a day of chasing them. Had plenty of ups and downs and made quite a few small mistakes. We closed the gap to ~8min going into the final bike leg, but I made a bad nav decision that put us about an hour behind. Navigating on the fly is still a learning experience for me. Had a great time on a challenging course. RD said there was about 15-18k of elevation change. The Midwest DOES have some hills! I was very happy with the result after the crazy spring I've had and being sleep deprived for several weeks. Hats off to Alpine Shop. It wasn't their best day either, but they still cleared the course and pulled off the W. Great competitors and even better people. Thanks DINO...looking forward to USARA Champs! Next up, The Longest Day in NY this weekend.

Prerace spin. Checking out my new XX brakes. Free warranty upgrade from SRAM after all the problems I've had with XO.

Making sure I still know how :) rained most of the time
