Wow, that was a tough weekend. The first race of the National Series is in the books. I felt good going into things, liked the tough course, and just didn't have it in the XC...
After a long winter of training and a decent week leading up to the race it was super disappointing to come up short on the big day. I was so frustrated with things I definitely wasn't excited to do the Super D or short track. But all I could do was have some faith and try again. The "super d" was basically a 7 minute time trial in which I rode a lot more respectably to end up 14th. Sunday afternoon was the last race of the weekend - a super fast short track where I managed an 18th place. I finally felt really good in this one and only missed out on racing with the front group for a top 10 after a couple tactical mistakes and getting caught behind a couple crashes. It was a pretty aggressive race and was actually fun!! No photos, but here are the race reports:

Follow all that up with a frustrating Monday at work... and I need some rest
