Race started at 2:00pm which was strange to all. Guess that was the first
bike race started in the afternoon. It was nice sunny before the race, then
a bit cloudy after race start. Unluckily, heavy raining arrived about the half
of my race. It's so muddy, especially at those a few up and downs. Over half
height of wheels had been rolling down in miriness water at certain sinkages.

Three of us had been accompanying pedaling for the last 10k and finished together.
Ooh, my adidas jersey... 
And watch closely the feet of the left guy Peter who is from Australia, he
finished the first two days of racing with those pair of CROCS sandal shoes!

The dinner & party at the night after 1st day awarding ceremony. Good
chances for bikers to know & chat each other. Enjoyable traditional dance,
singing, drinks & food. A lot of sweet salads from grassland besides beef
and pork.

Living in Mongolian tent was not bad. It's warm inside while 15 degree outside
at night plus strong wind the whole night. The wind helped bring us dry shoes
and cloths.

It was such a sunny day which was good. Plus mostly flat trails, not necessarily
using brakes, as my rear disc brake pads were entirely gone in muddy yesterday.
It happened to over half disc brake users.

I was ranked at 28 in these two days. It's good, within my expectation. However,
my timing could not manage to be in women's top three
The thing a little comforting was that I did not even see the back of the lady
champion since start on the 1st day, but I tried to catch up their 1st group
at least the first 1km on the 2nd day  Here
she is, Si Zhe from Hangzhou:

The 2nd day race proves that it is important to race as a team when you race
against wind. I had to find a small group of riders and did team strategy,
follow and lead...

Hundreds of people were watching. Everyone finished at the end were surrounded
and been asked for signature, including me. Being celebrity was really great
feeling!

the 3rd day 85km was actually very challenging to most of the participants,
after first two days 50k+50k race. My legs were already sour after two days  These

Darren said, Martin & he train everyday except Monday!!
A lot of bikers went back home the 3rd day evening and early morning the 4th
day. Some stay for the run... Louis, Hans & I did test run in the late
afternoon, just to see if we recovered from the day rest. Thanks God! Running
seems use different muscle group. Those soar muscles did not bring pain during
exercise.

I had not enjoyed the lovely green and scenery earlier cycling days due to
speed and tough competitiveness. Running was good chance now. At the long hilly
section, green runs up at my right side till the sky, and it spreads down on
my left ended at horizon line where the small town is.
