last night I entered my first race that wasn't on my tallbike. I came in third, but I had the answer to the bonus question, so I tied for second. I got real lucky, but I realized that I'm not THAT much slower than the really fast people I know. It was a short distance checkpoint race, which means alot of sprinting between checkpoints and a good bit of time finding the damn sign telling you where to go next, unless you happen to be right up on the person ahead of you who already found the sign and can see where they saw it. I'm still a bit tired, but I'm not nearly as sore as I thought I would be. The race was on Goose Island, and it was sponsored by the brewery, so there were cool prizes, and the race only cost a buck. Hells yeah.
