Empire XC

First XC race of the season. I finished 9th overall, same as two years ago, but 32 seconds slower. I'm not in as good of shape as I was then, but the quality wasn't that deep for the first race. The team did well, with a 36 second spread for the top five, and picking up the win. The points are the same for this race as it is for the later races where we might finish third, even with our A team.


Michael and I have a picture in this same spot from two years previous. Its cool that we're starting to have a history. Maybe Michael will even remember this place next year.
