The Un-Race Report of Quadcross 2010

It’s September, kids are back in school, the shelves (and my refrigerator) are stocked with Octoberfest, and The Patriot’s played their season opener.  But the biggest hint that fall has started is that we raced at Quadcross over over at Middlexex Community College.  Though I did Palmer cross a couple weeks ago, Quad feels like the real season opener.  It’s like returning to the first day of school after a long, very long, summer.  And quickly, you discover who’s found their legs, and who’s lost theirs.  Quickly, you’re reminded of the pain even though you’ve been doing microburts and running hills like a spandexed-lunatic at your local park.

Best heckle line I heard during the Cat 3 race: “Hey ______, you’re not getting a ride home unless you start moving up...”  Something like that.

Anyway, here’s the links to some photos on Facebook.  Let me know if you can’t TAG em.

    few minutes and actual effort to create a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and don't seem to get anything done.
