When to give up!

Today hurt. I'm too tired to do much or write much but here's the short of it. I got dropped at 1:15 in today and that was after a 15 mile neutral roll out. When the road goes up I seem to go back. I continued on and could not catch back on. I tried. I kept going with one other guy from the BMC team in which you could tell was more of a sprinter (I was out climbing him). So after a lot of motor pacing and holding onto the sag wagon, we reached the 1st feed zone. I wanted to give up, quit, call it a day, and pretty much go home. It hurt (did I mention that). Rob from our team (our support this weekend) convinced me that it was mostly downhill from there (he lied) but I kept going. I ended up catching Justin first, then Bill, finally Scott from our team. We ended up finishing with a group of about 15 or so. I think we made the time cut! So I'm not sure I know when to give up and today I was glad because of it. I may be stupid for keep going but I think I made the time cut. That all that matters now.
