#183: Crunk 3
Last night was Cyclocrunk #3.
Got a better start, but still had to fight through some traffic.
Between that and not feeling 100% prime, I ended up in no-man’s land between the 5-6 leaders and another group of 5 or so behind.
At least I think… it was hard to keep track of since I started to lap people already on the 2nd lap. After a while, I know I passed some groups 3 or even 4 or more times. I probably would say I was 8th or 9th. But I really hoped I would be able to stay with the leaders for a least part of the race. Andrea took some photos in the dark (she was sidelined this week). The battery of the camera ran out pretty early, so there were only a couple from the first part of the race….
The accumulated entry fees were put into a pot for the after party at Young Avenue Deli. Good times.
I pocketed my Garmin to see how it would look. I ended up doing 14 laps.
I think somebody might actually care. 14 laps was 9.84 miles (0.7 mile/lap). My average speed was only 11.9 mph (49:30 total time).
Here are a couple of pre-race shots when I was trying some different things in the sand pit. The sand was so deep there was not point to ride any of it.
