Did you do everything you could to prepare for today's race?
No, I started school this week so I was out of my normal routine.
Did you have any problems getting into the singletrack?
No
How did you like the manhole downhill?
I liked the downhill part but the turn at the bottom sucked since you pretty much had to stop to make the turn.
Were you strong from start to finish?
No, I felt good for the first 2 laps, but the 3rd and 4th I felt really crappy and I don't know why.
Were you happy with the way the race was run?
Yeah, they did a nice job.
When did you put the hammer down?
I never did. I felt to crappy.
Did you have any unusual problems?
Yeah, the bike worked good but the body didn't. I guess I need to upgrade.
Did you have any interesting experiences during your race (exchanges with competitors/spectators)?
No
Did you climb the steep uphill on any laps?
No, I made it up 3/4 of the way on laps 1 and 2 and nowhere near the top on laps 3 and 4.
Anything you'd like to add?
You're the man Bill.
