My second of two races today and I felt really good. Won by a good margin, this was my fastest 10K time ever too.
We had a slight headwind uphill outbound leg and tailwind downhill return leg. Rode it technically very well again, really happy with it. Definitely based on HR data I could have ridden a little harder, but I still wasn’t sure where I sat re: recovery from the initial altitude hit. (Ans: I was recovering pretty well I think by day 7 at altitude.)
Done racing for a little bit, now I’m off to Santa Fe to mountain bike for a few days.
Pics of me coming into the finish today and of the Fuji twins in the backyard of our rental house in Albuquerque, that’s me and @
