I didn’t win, but I am pumped
Just a quick update before I jump on the airplane. My race was awesome. I didn’t crash, didn’t lose my fire, and never stopped trying. I can’t even explain the feeling and emotions of my first World Championships. I don’t think that that anyone can ever get used to that atmosphere or tire of it. The fans and the race were all such an amazing experience.
I was really happy with my race. I didn’t mention to many people that I was a little sick. Honestly, it didn’t matter much. I suffered the same either way, but you can see it in the photos with the dust collecting in the drippy nose. The start was so hard and there were some crashes that I expected. My race was great, I suffered, just missed the group I needed o be in, but tried as hard as I could. I left it all out there. I am happy as can be. My 14 month racing season ended with a World Championships. I couldn’t be happier. It was great to be here to represent the USA. Also, I am very proud of the other Americans for their good showing and efforts. What an experience.
I will give a play by play later when I have time. Now it is back to the homeland! Thanks to everyone for the emails, and the support along the way.
