Notes
Whoa this was rough. Had the spontaneous idea of going towards the lake and hitting up the Bartlett segment for the first time in 6ish months and paid for it on the hills coming back
Felt good for a bit bc I was going downhill haha, thought I did well on that segment but broke my time by 1 second haha. Ended up not cracking the top 10 and tied for who is listed as 10th, bah lol
Miles 3-5 were all mostly going uphill and had to take a break at the top of Depot and Belle but did make it to the top. Went all the way back to Davison so enjoyed that downhill once I finally got there though I was physically drained
Needed a little extra to hit 7 so popped in the vineyards and once I got up the hill/rocky part I had to stop again with just over a tenth to go, that’s how best I was . Walked and then made myself finish that last stretch
Good for the character, bad for the legs , but it’s done
