Default Santa Ynez ALERT

The race course has been shortened for Sport class. Well once again, Mike Hecker has managed to "shake things up" right before a race.

All Sport classes have been reduced to one lap. Our start time is 8am. We would've been off the course before the high point of the temps. If he's that concerned, why not put two more water stations on the course?

Pretty pathetic for a National race.

I agree...lame. I would have been upset if I registered for sport XC (which I do race) and they shortened it to 11 miles!

Wow - the sport XC is going to be a drag race....

11 miles of sprinting! Doesn't sound like there will be any recovery moments in that race...Sucks.

GOOD LUCK to all that are racing! Have a great weekend
