5th place in the co-ed duo class with Rhonda Wamsley. Storms pushed back the race start 3 hours so lots of waiting around as we didn't get word until we had arrived in Yellow Springs. Conditions were pretty sloppy the first lap but then the course started to settle in. I definitely didn't have the right tires on early but as the course dried out my tires were hooking up well. Each lap was faster than the last. Rhonda had a flat on her first lap and we lost 30+ minutes. She did a great job running down the female of the co-ed team that finished 4th but I gave up the lead with 2 miles to go and finished 93 seconds out of 4th place. Overall a fun race!

Flatted 1.5 miles in on the first lap. I had to run a 5k with my bike to get to a new tire. 2nd lap was good. Nice finish by the Back Room Coffee Roasters team!
