Busted legs

I did well for most of the race, passing Omar, Sergio and Octavio by the turnaround point and racing down the mountain as I’m used to do. But once I got back to La Joya my legs stopped working, they felt extremely tired and unable to continue. I had to shuffle between power-walking 500 meters and jogging other 500, the same routine over and over until getting to the finish line. Of course, Octavio and Sergio were able to reach me at barely 2 km from the finish line, passing me with a little bit of amazement.
I arrived to the finish line after 4:40:06, feeling completely wasted but happy to have finished the 2009 Solo Para Salvajes racing circuit. We celebrated with some beers and a bunch of quesadillas before coming back to the city. Now it’s time to give the legs a short break for recovering before attempting Valenciana 100 at the beginning of 2010
