Pre-race routine:

UGH! I worked until 4AM... went home and slept until about 5:30, got up showered grabbed my gear and threw my stuff in the car. Hit the local gas station for coffee and redbull and yes some gas. Drove from Vail throught the winter snow to Sunny Denver. Got there with 6 mintutes to spare before the race started.
Event warmup:

Ran to a tree so that I could pee.
