Saturday June 1st, I finished 21st out of 22 in Expert Men category Results. It took me 2 hours & 26 minutes to complete four laps and a total of 27 km's long. Lap 1 = 32 mins, Lap 2 = 37 mins, Lap 3 = 38 mins, Lap 4 = 37 mins. The total Elevation gain was 2,044 feet. My average heart rate was 175 bpm and max was 190 bpm. Check out my Garmin data Here.
On Lap three I took a wrong turn and it wound up costing me a couple minutes. Someone took the purple ribbon down where I was supposed to turn right, not left. I was so happy with how the race went because I was allowed to complete all four laps and for me its about finishing and having a good time. My first lap was my fastest and I was really motoring out there. I slowed down considerably the next three laps. I really enjoyed the course because you can get into a good rhythm on the two km climb on the start of the lap and lots of flow up top and on the two km down hill section to finish up the lap.
The temperature was 22 deg C. I would like to thank all the volunteers and Spin Sisters for putting on the race.
