Not as bad as yours, but it’s wasnt a fun morning. I felt my body was warm (obviously it wasn’t) but my hands were so cold I couldn’t take a gel from my top tube and spent 3 mins trying to unclip my helmet after the race.
I got a pb but I’ve put a lot of extra effort into this season so I was disappointed. My heart rate was 15bpm slower than the e2/25 three weeks ago.
Worst TT experience ever today, even worse than when I almost took out my minute man during an overtake...
Woke later than planned so no warm up, which really would have been useful as it felt like 4deg at 7am. Took longer than intended to prepare so I raced to start line, missing my start by 50secs - only had to wait for 2mins for a spare slot. Just couldn’t get comfortable on the bike, glutes felt fucked and I assumed this was the reason for lack of speed. Get back with a shit time to find my brakes had been rubbing the whole way round. Half way home I get a call from the organiser as I forgot to sign back in after handing my number. To be honest I hope I get a DNF after all that.
