Anyway, diving down the last steep little hill Mayhew says, "this is what your gonna write about." Yup he was right, I hit the gravel and stood on it, boys were still right there, I as we hit the pavement I dumped the gears and gave it all the gas I had. I took the group, and rolled across the line ready to puke. Sprint finishes at the end of cross races are just stupid. Stupid in a great hard kinda way.
End of the day took 20th overall. 16th in 35+ Considering I didn't start like I wanted, I was okay with that. I have better rides in me still. Field had some extra special characters in it today. I also think I could have benefited from an extra lap, I felt like I was getting better each lap, and another lap may have helped me out. But you know what, this was a hard course, and damn, when it was over, I was very happy, I'm not complaining about a short race at all.
