Tysons Corner

Race on sunday went well. i sat in the pack the whole race except for one lap where i had a teammate dan go off the front solo to try to get a break going. i went to the front for that one and tried to block for him, but he lost the strenght and got swallowed up soon after. it looked like a good effort, but just didnt have the legs. coming in for the bell lap i moved back up to the front half of the group to get in position for the sprint. there wasnt too much organization near the last turn, so i knew it was gonna be a brawl sprint. coming around the last corner i was about 20 riders deep, and by the time i got back up to speed the first ten guys has already jumped for the line, but cause the last 800m to the line were uphill, they all died early, leaving us more patient ones open lanes to go for the win. i cruized by some of them, and made my jump at 200m to go, put a few more riders behind me and came in 7th at the line. wasnt a bad race. i felt happy with my result, but wonder that if i had gone with dan with 3 laps to go, if we could have held it off for a 1 and 2 win. that would have been awesome. maybe at syn-fit we can get another chance. they dont come that often.

went back to work today. not a bad day, its been raining off and on here. tomorrow is supposed to be cold. sam walked zoey and i went for a short recovery ride at hains point, and did a couple intervals.
oh, im gonna be starting college again soon, this summer probably. most likely physical therapy. merle maybe you can give me a job when sam and i move back. just know that i have to race a lot, so you may have to find someone to cover for me. lol
keeping my fingers crossed that we have a 4 day weekend this weekend.
not much else going on here. we made buffalo burgers and fries tonight, im full. ready for bedtime.
i love you all
