I'm not saying that it wasn't a good effort. But, there are those days when everything goes just right, which led to my fastest cross-town commute last summer. Good weather, good lights, good wind (head/cross wind for part, and tail wind for part),
More often, I'll get out... all ready to hammer a segment. Do a little warmup, then get 1 or 2 miles into the segment, and realize that it just isn't the right day.
