    For USCF races you can buy a one day license and yes, you would race in the lowest category. That would be Cat 5 for your husband and cat 4 for you. You will want to make sure that the race has those categories available.

    As far as will you be able to keep up??? That is very hard to say. I will say that California has a pretty competitive and relatively large racing community. (I checked out the web site - looks like there are finishing times for the results 2 years ago - the women's 3/4 field, which was small - 11, finished in a little less than 2 hours BUT - remember, average speed means very little in a race. With a pack that small it comes into play more, but still its about being able to keep up with surges as much as overall speed.)
