St. Cloud race report

Ouch.

Didn’t crash. Just ouch.

It was so incredibly hard, but so much fun! I finished really near
the bottom, but not DFL. Seriously do NOT care because I wasn’t even
able to do this race last year (the ONLY one I missed from being too
tired). So I am really happy I did it and didn’t DFL. It was HOT
and it was HARD. I think there were at least two really hard runups,
and that doesn’t even begin to describe how hard the course was.

My form totally sucked, but I really was still tired from racing
yesterday and driving home and then the much shorter drive today.
Excuses, excuses, lol!

It was so great to look all pro in the GW skinsuit that Sara so
generously let me buy off of her (since I have next to nothing on
Gopher-wear). That and my mean looking bike and I was feeling
goooooood (because it’s all about how you look, right?)

I don’t want to say anything about how any of the other gophers did
because I can’t wait to read their reports. But it was great seeing
Jessica, Dan, Rich, Sara, Corey (I’m missing someone and his name is
escaping me since I am so bad with names) and their significant
others/feed zone pros. Thanks for all the cheers and encouragement
:-)

Come out next Saturday-I promise not to be so tired and you can cheer
my MUCH better form ;-)
