Race # 1

Here’s a picture of my racing license that I just got in the mail. My first race was at Hagg Lake (Banana Belt Series 3) on the 19th; a four lap 44 mile rolling course. Beautiful weather greeted all the groups with bright sunshine yet cool breeze. I kept on fingerless gloves, leg warmers, and opted for Under Armour beneath my jersey.
I lasted one lap out of four. I was the rollers that killed me. And the wind. Having to fight into position, I ended up on the outside coming onto the dam where I blocked the wind for everyone. I ran outta gas on the following hill and decided that three more laps of this was going to be too much.
Time to hit the gym and really work on interval training.
