This is not a race report

It is Monday night and I'm still exhausted from a big weekend of driving and racing in California. Pre-race, race, and post race reports are all coming with plenty of pictures, but I have to find the time somewhere. We close on our house today!
The weekend was a blast. A totally different kind of XTERRA in a totally different environment from races down south. I got to meet and race against the current world champion Conrad Stoltz and I got to meet James Walsh, who inspired me to blog about racing XTERRA in the first place.
I finished 11th in my AG, good enough for some points, and didn't get hurt. Not too bad for some lack luster training over the past month and a half. Now it is just waiting to see if I earned enough points to qualify for the US Championships in Tahoe.

glad to be done
