Most of the p123 races I do are like this. I don't train for 80 mile races with the fastest guys in town so I hang in as long as I can and just watch. I probably won't even register for another p123 race again unless maybe it's an omnium with a TT since I can actually do those. Fortunately there are not a whole lot of p123 races or sometimes they offer a p123 and a 3/4 race.
