Great job! There is no shame in coming in last...You raced and had fun and are looking forward to more!
Ouch on the shins! I was anticipating that in my first race and showed up with shin pads under my tights! I had already whacked my shins enough in practice with the pedals and really didn't want to come home too bloodied

Congrats on your first race! Sounds like you had a good time, and I'm sure that most of us have at least one barrier story to tell...
I can't tell you how excited I am to see so many first-timers out racing 'cross this year! The beginner women's fields are growing by leaps and bounds.
Heal those shins, and get back out there. We can't wait to read the NEXT race report!

Not last!
WooHoo! Results are posted and I didn't finish last! Two other women either didn't finish or finished after me - Either way, I finished 14 out of 16.
