If this doesn't get you pumped to race for 24 hours, nothing will.
In other, more corporate news, I have been diligently working on top-notch resume to submit to Jamis Bicycles next week. I am really hoping that it pans out and turns into something good. I've also sent emails to other companies in the industry in hopes that someone takes pity on poor mountain bikers. I also gave my first speech of the year in my communications class this morning. Public speaking is not my thing, at all. I couldn't help but feel uterley pathetic when I realized that I am hundreds of times more willing to destroy myself in this weekend's race than to stand in front of a class of 20 freshman and give a simple 2 minute introduction speech about myself. I was terrified. Is it lack of self confidence, being afraid of what people think of me, people not accepting me...? I have no idea. All I know is that it has always been like that for me, ever since my 5th grade science presentation on rabbits. Weird...
