Cyclo-Vets Super Masters 20K TT
March 31, 2012 – San Diego, CA
Masters 35-39 – 1st – 27:54:00
289 watts – 26.7 MPH

My first W of the year. Even though I didn’t sleep well the night before, the race conditions were ideal. It was overcast with light winds and in the upper 50s. I got a good warm-up in and was ready to go, but still groggy for having had about 5 hours of sleep the night before. I could tell my legs were tight but excited about my first lap splits. I really wanted to break 28 minutes. I was hurting towards the end, despite my heart rate still being low. Overall, I was happy with my performance, as I knew I could this going for 20K. I was even more impressed in seeing how many 70+ year olds were racing. I hope I’m that fast at that age. BTW, the San Diego Cyclo-Vets put on a great race!
