RTH with STORM and Chris Piller. (Gally is recovering from a nasty bout with Covid.) I was worried about keeping up with these 2 gazelles, but they kindly gave me the shorter matrix legs. After hammering for about an hour at the back I did OK once I warmed up. They were still stronger on the climbs but I had decent legs for the rail trail and descent sections. One very steep climb had me walking it off for a bit after- the boys were patient.
We leapfrogged Eddie/Weersink, then caught Attack from Above and MBR on the road section. The top 2 teams were still at the PYP relay CP, but we were the last of the 6 out. We ended up leapfrogging MBR as they kept finding easier route choices, but passed them on the road/trail run to the finish.
Bob/Scott/Shannon’s team won in about 2:41, Eddie’s team won Male and we won Masters. We were also behind Harper/Jack/Nicole and AFA.
Great run with these fast, super-nice teammates, although we were sorry to lose Gally.
