    That's my feeling. If she wants to compete I'll support her as any racer. If I raced (which I don't 'cause I'm slow ) after suffering race after race towards a final goal only to find the slot I'd earned filled by someone I never got the chance to beat .... I'd be a little mad No cuts to the font of the line (pun intended)

    She could have transitioned earlier and earned the spot. That was poor planning. Now, race and earn your spot.

    When she does I'll cheer her on! *\o/* *\o/* *\o/* and would welcome her to TE. If you're lurking, c'mon down.
