How was your fitness level going into this race?

Alright, not as good as I want it to be, but I'm sure everybody feels the same. Always room for improvement.

Were you happy with your position going into the singletrack?

No, I always have a slow start.

Were you strong from start to finish?

No, I start very slow and get a bit faster the further into the race. I never feel strong, I am still waiting for that race!

When did you put the hammer down?

When I got around the other riders in the middle of the singletrack.

Did you have any unusual problems?

Same as usual getting around the other riders.

Were you happy with the way the race was run?

As always a good job, I liked that they put the women in front of the juniors, less people to pass.

Did you have any interesting experiences during your race (exchanges with competitors/spectators)?

There is a woman towards the end of the race that yells out women rule, she gives you that little extra push!

Anything you would like to add?

Thanks to the promoters for a great first year of racing for me, Its been painful and interesting.
