The 6 Day

Finished 6 days of racing – three races a night. I feel like my legs are going to pop (or give out). It’s nice to have a day off.

Our team finished first on the last day, so that was a good way to end. My teammate was a fast rider, and that is why we won. Of course being the slower of the two, I knew it was me that everyone else was going to attack in the Madison. But I held my own, and never let the leader get away.

It is pretty intense racing 6 days in a row. I go to sleep at night thinking about strategy, what I did wrong, what I did right, what I could do better. The last race was 10 miles long at speeds averaging in the low-mid 30’s; that is quite the way to end 6 days of racing!
