That was the most miserable race I've ever attempted. I got in a break that lasted for a lap, then a lap after we got caught, I dropped out. I was shivering on a 95 degree day. The air was like soup. I drank 4 or 5 bottles in the 8 laps that I raced. Some people were taking bottles to drink every other lap, and getting ice the laps that they weren't getting water.
