After winning the Super-D, I had a snack and waited for short track to start. I changed into a clean kit, got my Super-D medal, and watched the cat 1 guys race.
When Comp got to the start line, the clouds rolled in and it started raining. Also, the temperature dropped. I got a preferred start from my Super-D finish and was 4th or 5th to the hole-shot.
With the rain, my tires, my spent legs, and a few loose turns on the course, I had a hard time sitting in with the in crowd. Each lap I'd slide out and then have to chase back on, resulting in hard efforts when I needed them least. Unable to respond to the other riders' attacks, I quickly fell back into the pack, and finished mid-pack.
On the weekend, I learned a lot, grabbed a medal and nailed 4th in the omnium. It was a good weekend, but I was completely spent by the end.
