Afternoon A-meet/national ranking event/Boston Sprint Camp finale! There was a chase start, a fancy start gate, and an auto-finish, which were totally cool. Course setter maestro Schirminator saved his route choices for this one, so there were a few more left/right decisions than the morning. Still a very very fast race. I pushed real hard and actually felt pretty strong, but young Will was a touch speedier and got me by eight seconds. It's the first defeat Black Magic has suffered at the hands of a non-European.
As the Sunday winner, Will won the delicious apple pie, while I, as the overall points winner, won the delicious chocolate banana bread (prizes courtesy of Alex). I leave it to you, dear reader, to decide who got the better end of the deal.
(The answer of course is that we both got the better end.)
