Sooo race didn't really go as planned. Took it out pretty hard through the first mile with Jeremy. Bit behind the lead group, but those guys were obviously rolling. Asked a guy from GRC what he was shooting for. He said sub 16, so I decided to try and latch on to him. He dropped me a few minutes later. Went through the mile in 4:50, and was already feeling it. Tried throwing in a surge, and catching up to the group ahead, but just had nothing. Kept pushing after the turnaround, through 2 miles in 10:25. Last mile was rough obviously. Felt like I had more in me, but just didn't have it today, and don't think I would have gone under anyway. 3 miles in 16:04. Finished 12th. Not what I was hoping for, but dwelling on one [relatively] meaningless roadrace won't make me any faster.
