OMBC - Eastfork SP - Sweatfest



Real quick from the phone during lunch.

Ouch is all I can say about my performance. Two solid fast laps and the third lap I just blew up and went backwards for about 30-45 min.
Entire kit including my gloves were soaking wet with sweat almost the entire race.
I think I was Lantern rouge, last man in the woods.
Almost passed out after the race. Not enough drink I guess.

Leg photo has red tint due to POP up tent. It's not a sunburn.

More later.

Had the same feeling, but on my second (and last) lap. I felt great and in a split second I was done. Tried using all the wrong muscles to keep the pace up and then hurt my back. Went from slow to standstill. I stopped to stretch out a bit and saw Chris go by in a flash. Kept getting shelled over the next 3 miles. I'm still not sure what happened. I guess I'm just not used to riding that hard in that kind of heat. Felt ridiculously good for 14 miles.

Oh well...hopefully things go better at the next race.
