National series cyclocross. I wasn't silly enough to race elite but it turned out all the women's classes started together so we were all in the same race anyway. Pace was hot from the start and it took a while to get the single speed wound up. Picked off a few riders through the race, got passed by one and lapped by the top 3 who were flying. Course was tough but fun.
I was first of one in my class. I managed to beat a couple of elites but was also beaten by a couple of older masters riders. Great to race in such a strong women's field.
a couple of long work days have caused my back/glute/hammy to seize up which has been quite painful. did a few stretches before I started, and most of the run was ok, until the last 10 mins which was a stagger home.
