Warrenburg race location has always been like home field advantage for me. Winning my first ever MHSC overall there and many other overall wins.
I rode practice and thought the trail couldn't get any better. It got way worse. 30 mins before the start of the race the rain started to fall making the open areas very slippery. Some how I ended up 2nd off the start and moved quickly into the lead. Kole Henlsee got around me in a grass track after I had gone down in a corner. Quickly remounting and and putting my head down to catch back up I cought a rut with my left foot, it twisted and I heard a loud pop. I could put weight on my heal but couldn't move my ankle any way without a lot of pain. I struggle through three laps and than with the rain coming down and trail getting vey slippery I decided to stop before I damaged my ankle any more.
I decided to go to urgent care just to make sure nothing was broken. End result is just a very bad sprain. Time to rest the ankle but get the rest of me in shape and ready for the first MORE race May 15.
