I realize that holding a 4-only race will likely not garner enough participants, but it is discouraging to some of the rest of us who are 4s and don't have the option of racing Elite to be thrashed by someone who clearly should be racing at the Elite level. Not sure what to do, but thanks for letting me rant ;-)

Well, sounds like she ought to cat up and either give 100% to one elite race, or use a men's race to expand her workout. Maybe she doesn't realize she's being perceived as a sandbagger. On the other hand, maybe she's trying to build her confidence to make the move. I don't know, but I can see why you'd be peeved.
