Raced two GP sessions at Action Sports yesterday. It seems that every race, is always a little bit funner than the last and just keeps getting better.
Expecting another mudfest going down due to Saturdays' hit and miss downpours..... Not so! The whole track was in great shape with just enough moist areas to keep it fun and challenging.
They ran the track backwards yesterday which is always a nice refreshing change up. The 11:00 session (Decade Class for me) was fast and very competitive. Everybody it seemed was in the mood to race.
The afternoon 3:00 session started even faster than the morning session and nobody in the 40+ class was willing to back off.............. That is until about lap 5, when the rain gods paid us a visit. We went from wide open to barely racing. First time I've ever had a race change like that mid way through. It got very interesting!
I tried my best to wind down and clear my mind on the way home and after, but it helped little. I got the worst nights sleep in months. Tossing and turning all night long in bed. My brain was still racing.
Repeated body jerks (everytime I entered a corner), heavy rapid breathing (dodging and accellerating), Deep gasps followed by sighs (approaching and landing jumps), night sweats (I sweat profusely during a race), sleep talking ( Move, Move, Move!!!! )
The 5am. alarm indicated that I had just completed Moto #3. Time to go to work.
