I'm finding that even an hour race is a bit tough for me (55min + 5 laps at Tues Night), when I can even stay with the group.
When I say "short", I'm talking half a minute or so. Heh.
I think I took the hour thing a bit too literally.
Thing with track stuff is from a time perspective it's probably less time to train for longer stuff than to drive to a track to train.
