Sandia Peak Challenge

Last weekend we went and raced the Sandia Peak Challenge in Albuquerque. It had been a month since we raced so it seemed a little harder this time. Not to mention the fact that it is eight hills uphill, and it wasn't a smooth uphill either. Then when you got to the top, you had to go back down to the bottom!
This is the view when you hit the top! (Taken previously to the race. There was no stopping at the top when you were racing!)

What our legs looked like when you came down from all the dust flying!

Right before you hit the top!




It was a good race. I got first and even beat a few sport girls, which means....I think I am going to be moving up to sport in the next two races!
Mike had no technical problems and still is holding first place in the NMORS series.
