Pretty good race effort wise, I pushed hard through the middle, but I went out too hard and felt like I wasn't moving well in the back half.

Things I learned this season:
- Pacing appropriately works well, going out with the leaders (in workouts) and holding on as long as possible also works well
- The best races and workouts happen when I crush the middle.
- The earlier I show up to a practice, generally, the more I overthink the workout (or race)
- Being competitive is easier when your competition has been talking shit (@Louis). I tend to be a lot more competitive in practice than in races
- I am good at having fun at practice, not so much at races
- I feel noticeably better when I eat well.

Good races, I pushed hard and I believe PB'd in both events. Probably should have pushed harder through the middle of each race. I also need to work on being more tactical with competition.

Lower legs hurt really badly until the workout started, but the workout went pretty well. I shouldn't have gotten dropped on the last rep. Just a matter of not wanting it bad enough.

Good workout, Derek and I went out hard, I fell off, then Colin challenged me and we gained on Derek before Colin dropped me. Effort and speed felt good.
