Colorado State TT, "20k" for Juniors. Bigger than normal wind, 70 degrees, little hills. The course is kind of a zigzag out and back.

Because of the course, it went tailwind, headwind, tailwind, headwind, tailwind, headwind with hills at each of those parts. I passed my 30 second man pretty early, he seemed kinda new to the racing thing. I kept on motoring, and passed another guy. I came to the turnaround about 10s behind another guy, and chased him down for the 2nd half and caught him a few miles before the finish. The finish was an uphill headwind, and I was cranking hard. Crossed the line and it was done.

I got 5th for my age category, I got beaten out of 4th by .47 seconds! I did the math, 4th place was .02% faster over the course, crazy stuff. 75 seconds off of first.
