This past weekend I traveled back home to Houston to race the track State Championships at the Alkek Velodrome. It was a quick trip. I left LA Thursday night after my one class and a training session at ADT and I returned on Sunday afternoon.
When I arrived Thursday night my mom picked me up from the airport and had shrimp spring rolls in the car for me, gotta love my mom!! It was kind of late so when we got home we went straight to bed.
Friday morning I got up early ate breakfast with my Granny then head down to Sugar Land to Sugar Cycles. I got to see a bunch of friends there and also Kyle gave me a super cool new kit!!
On my way home I stopped by my dad's office to pick him up because he had broken his heal the weekend before. (He has now gone through surgery and everything is good!)
Friday night came very quickly and I headed off to the the track where I got to catch up with a bunch of good friends that I hadn't seen awhile!
My first race was the 200 meter (not my favorite!) I ended up getting a personal best on that track and later I checked my records and found I was only .02 second of my best time ever.
The racing continued all weekend, with a Saturday morning session and evening session. The races were Keirin, Sprints, Scratch, Points, 500 meter, and 3 kilometer pursuit. I won all the races giving me a clean sweep at the state championships!
It was a great weekend of racing with a wonderful group of women!
Other than racing I didn't have any time to do much of anything else, but I definitely enjoyed every minute I got to spend with my family and friends.
Oh, and thank you to all my team mates and other friends that were able to make it out and watch!
I can't believe there is only 1 1/2 weeks till Elite Nationals: https://www.usacycling.org/events/2010/elitetrack/
