Saturday's race was pretty cruisy, a club event most of the fast guys were running 2 laps the o/50s and juniors just one. 5 juniors thrashed me so I ran nearly all of it on my own.
Sunday's race was the final event of the series. It is a race within a race as it involves a sealed handicap. The handicap is based on your best performances over the year. We don't know the result of the handicap until presentation night next saturday. Up for grabs is about $1500 in prizes to the season aggregate points winner with double points going to the handicap winner. Certainly means everyone runs through the finish.
I felt I ran pretty well. I was 7th at 1/2 way but grinded my way to 6th over the last km. pulling away into a stiff head wind.
It was my 38th race since April 14, a big winter of racing!
