Chaz here, reporting on getting slammed at Stazio over the weekend. Perhaps it was the 1 hour "warmup" I spent huddled behind some guys truck before the race, perhaps it was the 2 nights of broken sleep (thanks kid!), perhaps its was the 40 mph wind gusts at the top of the climb. But whatever it was, I didn't last long! 3 laps, or 10 minutes, and I was done.
The good news was that I got to leave early...
