Naomi Lang: 2nd place, OCC; The race of her lifetime. Fight to the finish is an overused phrase, but today, Naomi Lang epitomized what it truly means. She set the pace for the rest of the field to follow, summiting the Tete de Balme highpoint in pole position. Undeterred by a fall, she kept the pressure high, upping the ante as others chased. Even as she was challenged for the victory, with just kilometers to run, she never let up, daring others, and herself, to dig even deeper. Just 3 seconds separated the first two places, truly a contest fought from start to tape. Congratulations Naomi.
