Today, I did the Herne Bay 10-mile time trial In Kent.
We went to bed at 11:30 yesterday because we got to the hotel late and then we woke up at 5am to get ready for the race. The hotel lady gave me a bag of free M&Ms 😊
It was a great course and the weather was warm by the time I started and cloudy, a bit windy and misty/fogey. I had a bad start and didn’t get clipped in very quickly, but I made up some time down hills. On one down-hill, I got to 32mph which is about 51kph.
My Garmin stopped halfway through the race and the results aren’t in yet so I don’t know my time, but I don’t think I did very well.
I also raced yesterday, and my legs ached a bit so maybe I would have done a bit better if I didn’t race the day before.
