While, Neva is off recovering, Morgan and Kristen training, Jen Wilson in Redlands and Becky on here way home from her success at track worlds, I opted to enjoy race training for the weekend.
Saturday morning I got up early and headed out to Piru for Uncle Tren's 40K TT. The turn out was great and I got to test out my bike, legs and position in my first 40K of the season. I managed a 1:03:45 or so. Official results are still not posted, but I am happy with my time. After a 10 minute warm down, I race home, showered, changed, went out for a mani & pedi then returned home for a quick nap, before heading out to Encino for a bit of track racing. It was a great turn out at the velodeome and many of you were there. I was happy to see all the South Bay support considering this was my first track race in a year. The women's field was about 10 big and included Julia Cross, whom I was honored to race with. I was savvy enough to place 2nd in the scratch race, 1st in the miss-n-out and 2nd in the unknown distance for 2nd in the omnium overall. Thanks for all of you who came out and supported the Encino Velodrome. It's home court for my track training and they take as good of care of me as all of you do in Carson. Next up OJAI!!!!!
