on 4/29 was the green brier challenge. this was a huge race held right here in Frederick MD the race was an Olympic qualifying race so a lot of the big names made there showing. the course was a 6 mile loop. the course is a mixture of nice not so technical single track to nice rock gardens and steep up and down hills.
i figured this would be a great first race and well it was. i raced in the beginner class but raced up and age group in the 19-29 class so i could do two laps instead of one. well needless to say I'm glad i raced up because i took 3rd in the class and my lap times were both faster the the one lap the 18-19 class did.
the race went really smooth of course it was hard but i didn't expect to do that well. i figured id do alright but not that well. the climbs defiantly killed me and that's what held me for 2nd or 1st. also the amount of riders around me kinda distracted me i wasn't to sure when to Chase or let the other classes by. but hey it was my first race i took 3rd got a cool medal and a bunch of free stuff so no complaints from me.
picture will be posted up soon!!!!
