Race name: Central New Hampshire Road Race Race date: Monday, Aug 4, 2008

Twas a race cut short well before its time. My race was canceled after 2 laps of 5 due to a massive storm that decided to show it really ugly head 20 miles into my race. Boo on that one mama nature.

I did well though, I had planned from the start that this was going to be the turning point in how I raced. I was aggressive, always within 20 of the front, and I took the chances I needed to to get around guys who were slower than me on the climbs. I wasn't slow on the climbs!! I stayed with up in the lead, comfortably over each long climb and short punch (totaling 2000 feet of climbing by the time our race was canceled)

I was in there. Next time I race, it's a top placing. That's my goal, and I'll work to make that goal happen.
