The last of the four races/group rides required for the Academy. This one was an 18 km criterium of six laps around the Central Park Laguardia Loop. As in the other races, I managed to fall into a small group of similarly skilled riders and paced nicely with them. I earned a featherweight power-up, saved it to the end where I knew the course rose up a bit just prior to the finish; it gave me a comfortable gap ahead of my nearest rivals. I just barely made the race start (a whole 16 seconds to spare) thanks to a slow Windows update on my tablet. That made me forget to start the Garmin until about 2 minutes in. I rode out to 20 km total in-world cooling down, closed Zwift, then kept cooling down until I also clocked 20 km on the Garmin. Those aren't equal-effort kilometers, of course, but they are at least of similar times and the same virtual distances. I finished 28th of 38 in the "D" class, putting out 2.4 W/kg with a time of 33:40, 06:25 behind the winner (27:15 at 3.3 W/kg). The "A" race leader finished in 24:16 at 5.3 W/kg. That's better positioning than in the other races, and better power than all but the first (possibly overenthusiastic) race.
