1 down... 20 to go...

Made it through my first race of the year.... not a bike race but the Abominable Snowshoe Race put on by Chico Racing... their first event of this type and it turned out to be a great day, a great course, a great workout and some great food afterwards... nothing like 3 bowls of chili and 4 caramel treats to help your body recover!!!
After about 250m, it was the winner (Stephane who beat me by about 150m) and i alone off the front... just a death run and no real tactics here!!!
9km in 50:24... a pretty good time considering the hills, snow, snowshoes and lack of long running legs....
i learned that runners kiss after a race... and to think that i make people giggle uncomortably when i hug the Podium Girls / Guys....
Chili and Chicks.... worth running for!!!
