If You’re the Only One Who Shows UP, Does 1st Place Really Count…
In my brief stent on on-line dating I actually had someone email me that….
The Answer:
Oh, hellZ, yes, it does count.
If you’re the only one crazy enough to do a segment, are you still Queen of the Mountain…
The Answer:
Oh, hellZ, yes, it does count!
The latter example was when I decided to do Toughman New Mexico with the flu. I pulled a 6:30, and got off course on the run 3 times. It’s not my fault no one else showed up.
I showed up, had a mechanical pulling the bike out of the car, and raced with the flu. As a result of that, I also qualified for Nationals.
No offense to the guy who said that, it’s likely he’s still single. I’m just sayin’. Or maybe, just maybe he is happily married, by now.
I didn’t know this was a segment, I wasn’t trying for any segments that day, it’s just a result of Strava. Now that’s it’s published, I know that some of my uber competitive girlfriends will try and take it away. It will be likely one of those QOM notifications I get, and I’m all like WTF is that?!? Usually I can only tell what state it is in, by who actually takes it. Only 12 people have actually completed this segment, which I am 8th. So go get it!
