MTB Race News-Lambert Park XCO

MTB Race news has a great write-up about the race last weekend.  It's a great site for all the latest in mountain bike racing, it's also run by some of the most honest, down to earth, creative people.  Here is the section about the Pro women's race from that article:
 "The women’s race was equally exciting as Erica Tingey (Kuhl/Rocky Mountain) made an appearance after finishing in the top-15 at the Sea Otter Classic just one week before. Tingey would be challenged by Utah’s perennial top-rated cross country racer Kathy Sherwin (Stan’s No Tubes). XTERRA professional Emma Garrard (Specialized) was also on hand as well as Jen Hanks (Epic Brewing/MTBRaceNews.com) who has been on the podium at every race she has done after missing all of 2011 being treated for breast cancer.
Tingey was the first to attack as she powered off the start line determined to hit the singletrack in front. Hanks followed close behind before Sherwin squeaked into second wheel just before the descending started.
Tingey continued to power her way through the rocky course showcasing some new found skills on the technical portions of the course. Riding with confidence on the tight, rocky, and demanding singletrack the Kuhl rider built on her lead over Sherwin who admitted after the race she wasn’t having her best day on the bike.
Sherwin was able to put some distance between herself and third placed rider Jen Hanks who was enjoying the challenging terrain and power climbs spread throughout Lambert Park.
By the end of 4 laps Erica Tingey had pulled ahead by just over a minute with Sherwin crossing the line in second. Hanks took third, securing a spot on yet another podium while Emma Garrard finished fourth followed by KC Holley (4Life)."
