Fun goodbye to Boulder for now. Super long portapotty lines so I missed my wave (AB) by a lot and went out with one of the later DX waves. Went out hot and caught up with the back of the next wave by the end of the first straightaway. From there it was nonstop bobbing and weaving. Was actually 20 seconds ahead of last year at the halfway mark because of the fast start, but then I lost a full minute on the downhill because I couldn’t hammer it in the crowd like I did last year. Passing/running with thousands of people while listening to Big Bootie in the rain was really fun though. Must have rushed the poop because I started having some poop pressure at the end. Definitely didn’t give it the full race effort and felt super fresh at the end so I’m actually happy with it as a fitness benchmark.
