well i ended up 9th (cat 4/5). i lost my full bottle in the pothole riddled corner - it bounced out of my cage, and i made a grab for it but it slipped through my fingers - almost taking out frunkin i think (sorry, again). so i did the whole race about 1 hr 40 mins with one water bottle - talk about suffering, and by the finish i had some major cramping going on in my calf.

the cat 4/5 field also got mixed up in the master's 4/5 - talk about confusing. i was trying to let them by but the rest of my field wasn't, so i had to pass back through the field to stay with the lead group.

thanks for taking pics as usual john. although i was in the middle/back of the field a lot, so i'm not expecting much for photos...
