This was not the best criterium for me because of the short but steep hill (not easy at 190lbs), but this was a great crit course. I suffered up the hill because each time up it I was hitting over 1000 watts with a peak of 1309. I had planned to attack with 1.5 laps to go so that I could get up the hill and have a gap to the finish. Because of my poor positioning in the last 5 laps, I ended up attacking on the on the last lap, but at the top of the hill I did not have enough of a gap so I sat up on the last lap. Also, it was sprinkling during that last half of the race, but not so much to make it dangerous.
