The final stretch to the finish line.

Kiersten and Elizabeth were together pretty much the entire course which was probably fun for the girls, and Kiersten finished a second behind her in fourth place. I don't think either girl pre-rode the course so I'm sure there were lots of surprises, especially with the wet conditions.

It was 62 degrees at the start and warmed up to almost 80 by the finish... thank goodness for arm warmers!
