OK, I am falling behind with posting here. I see Ken highjacked my account and did his own posting...It's been super hot here, over 100 degrees during the day, so I've spent a lot of time trying to stay cool in the swimming pool or just lying in bed trying to ameliorate my sleep debt.
Sprints didn't go as well as I'd hoped. I qualified second in the 200 to Julie Bautista from San Diego who won the sprints and 500 in 2006 (my year of two broken collar bones!) I won my quarter final ride pretty easily and was then matched with my teammate Deborah Kidd (from Santa Fe) for the semis. I beat her in the first ride, and then she took me in the second two. I was pretty tired for my bronze medal final and ended up in 4th. Deb got silver in the finals.
Marsha and Shannon did their points race (50+ age groups but scored separately). It was a really small field so it was hard for them to really do any team tactics. Marsha ended up with gold and Shannon with silver.
Vic Williams got bronze in his pursuit. Steve Whitmore got 19th.
Today the 40-something men and women sprint and the 30-something men and women points race. George Hertner and Dave Macintosh showed up, so more Coloradoan to cheer for. That's it for now...
