To my fellow cyclists: Finish Strong!

Yes testing was long and hard, but I also had fun. Somehow I had forgotten that this is so much fun. I loved it as we each dealt with our performance anxiety. Amazingly, about 2:30 AM, we had all settled down and for me that was when the fun began. It is such a privilege to practice and train with athletes at the top of their game. I've gotten some rest (after my cat fussed at me for a solid ten minutes about dragging in at 4:30 in the morning. That cat thinks he is my father. I think he grounded me). Now it is time to finish strong at the public test. We need a t-shirt that says we tested during a hurricane, you can't scare us!
