Red Hot 50K

Helen did awesome, 2nd place. 36mi and about 5000' vert in about 5.5hrs. She was only about 30min behind Darcy, and beat Anthea. She felt ok for her first long race of the year, but I think she had some stomach issues. The weather couldn't have been much better. 60 degrees and brilliant sunshine. Alina and I hung out in the hotel for a bit, then we walked down Main St Moab looking for muscle cars. We didn't see too many, as they are like cockroaches and usu only come out at night. I was lucky enough to meet Seth for a ride up Amasa Back Sat, then Sovereign Trail for a few hours Sunday morning. Yesterday morning I did a couple laps on the Slickrock practice loop. Luckily the ride home was a very typical 4.5hrs, unlike the 8hr trek getting there on Friday eve due to the road closures.
