Borrowed a Number and Raced Cat 5

Showed up to a local crit thinking I’d just watch. Ended up borrowing a number from someone who DNS’d and racing Cat 5.

Got dropped on lap three but finished the race. Legs are destroyed but already planning the next one. Racing is a different animal than training alone.
