Women's Open

This weekend, I did my first races with the big guns. Women's open races. Maybe it would be that 1 mph more that would make me go from feeling good to feeling like shit. I wanted to see if I could hang. I wanted to see if I would fall off the back. At worst, I would have a really good interval workout. I was nervous. I was nervous because Sara keeps telling me how she wants to ride like Sonja Evers who was right next to me. I was nervous because I didn't know what to do and thought everybody would hate me and think I'm sketchy. I was nervous.

But, it turned out, it was so much fun. Luckily, I didn't get dropped. I got to finish both of my races. And I won a pair of socks.
