Group Health took 1st and 2nd at the WA State Cyclocross Championships for the cat 3 women. I got a silly "silver" medal. It was great weather (50s and kind of sunny); I actually got so hot during the race that I had to toss of my gloves. Another woman and I were racing for 2nd for about 80% of the race, until she dropped her chain, and I was able to keep her away. I was surprised at this, as it was a fairly flat, not technical race, lots of grass and pavement, and I tend to prefer courses exactly not like this. We were also missing some of the people who normally place really well, but a 2nd place is a 2nd place.
West Virginia is in the news again, once more for something negative: WV town shrugs at poorest health ranking. Apparently, Huntington, WV is the least healthy (high rates of obesity, heart disease, diabetes) town in the US, but no one there cares.
