| 4h of adrenaline race at seatac, me, yumay, eric, aaronV, we won in the coed division, yumay and I raced as a pair, and eric and aaron, each of us did 5 laps of about 4 miles, they did them in 18-20min and we in 23-25min per lap, yumay was a bit bonk-ish at lap 4 but recovered well, i was fine for the most part but the subsequent run was kicking my ass... |

| lord hill O, finished 3 minutes behind eric, due to 2 gruesome error, one directional change not reading terrain well, and one totally messed up route choice, if one can call that a route choice really... i got about 8 or 9 best split times and beat eric flat out on speed to several of them... he is sick, but a year ago he would have had to be near death for me to even come close ... i hope this surge of speed will translate to the longer races as well... |
