Started again between 70-80. Worked hard to get into top 10. Made a great move in the last off-road section to get into 8th and then missed my pedal remounting! Slipped to 10th, but happy with that.

I liked today course alot better, but the course was still very ruff. My back was pritty toasted by the half way point. I finished 49th out of about 120 starters. Tried to ride the up hill sand pit and had serveral minor crashes and found a very large stick/small log that stopped me in my tracks. Tough race, but a good race.

Thought we were leaving early to get back to Columbus after our races. I ended up pitting for Derrick Y. again for the Elite Master's race and Rebbecca B. requested me for the Elite Women's race since Katie went home sick last night.

I would be nice togo down the N.C. for the next UCI, but I am tired after back to back big race weekends. I am taking a week off from racing............I will try and type more later......
