So.......
I finally signed up for a shorter XC race and I picked a good one. The Mellow Johnny's Classic was an awesome event to be part of. It was held at the Juan Pelota ranch, aka Lance's Ranch. My race started at 11am, and it was hovering around 90 degrees and 90% humidity. The pace of my group was out of control, everyone wanting to do good at this large venue. It was hilly, dusty, fast and a great learning experience for me... Not nearly the same pace as you would attach a 24hr. race. Half my field did not finish this 24 mile race due to the heat, crashing or flats. I am really looking forward to doing more races later this season, this left a very positive taste in my mouth and now I am hungry....
