Hello Everyone,
Sorry for the late update. I've been very busy with school.
Last weekend the Lindsey Wilson College cycling team traveled to the University of Notre Dame to continue racing. Saturday was based on a 70 mile road race. The race was very tough, but Lindsey Wilson managed to get two riders in the winning breakaway, which were Josh Nagode and I. The breakaway was composed of 4 Marian riders, 2 Lindenwood, and two Lindsey Wilson. The breakaway split up with 3 laps to go due to the confusion I caused on the Marian riders. Four of the 8 riders ended up staying away, where my teammate Josh Nagode ended up in 4th Place.
On Sunday was the 35 mile Criterium. Overall the criterium was tough due to the massive flurries of attacks the entire race. Soon, I noticed that none of the attacks were staying away, so with 3 Laps to go I began setting up for the sprint. The Marian team lead the train, where I had perfect position right behind them. With 300 meters, the sprint started, and that's when I launched my sprint to the line. With second place 20 meters behind me, I gave my victory solute as I crossed the Finish Line. Without God's help I couldn't win this race, and I thank him for that. During this race I wanted to accomplish what I didn't in the road race which was a victory. I wanted to give everything I had to win, and thank God I achieved what I wanted.
Thanks for reading,
Danny Estevez
