Holy - 36 seconds! That's a *race*! You did extremely well!
One time I came first in category at a race with only one competitor. When I tell people about it, nearly everyone says, well you shouldn't be telling people there was only one other person! <smile> In comparison, she was 27 minutes behind me. But she still came second. She finished, she raced, and that's what it's all about!
iFKA, be proud of yourself! You're a racer!
Hugs and butterflies,

You should be very, VERY proud of yourself.
As for the sister, well...
Does she race?
Tell the story with a smile and finish by saying
"I think I did quite well. I'm rather proud of myself"

She doesn't even drive the bike, she just can't find the beauty in it, but so does everyone else. They all think I'm a freak for doing all that, but it doesn't matter.
