2008 Dogwood Road Race (35th out of 45, 11th out of CAT 5: CAT 5/4)

Ok well there's not much to say about this race. This was the longest race I had ever been in, and the second longest distance I had put on a bike in a single day. With that in mind, I didn't do too bad. I would have placed much much better if my back hadn't acted up. At one point, I actually got off of my bike to stretch my back out because it was bothering me so bad. My legs felt great during and after the race, but I know that I am not strong enough yet to truly CAT up. I'll give it another month of good training and go from there.

I bought a weight vest that I am going to be training with from now on. Anytime I'm on the bike, I'll be lugging my weight vest. It's only going to come off for races.
