Races for cat2/sport class are usually about 15 miles. Last week's race was 10 but the final race of the year will be 25. All depends on terrain. Once I'm bumped (or choose to move up) to cat1/expert the races will average around 20 miles. I have the fitness for that now -- but not the result history (I think you need so many top 5 finishes).

So your races are about 5 miles? Doing labs with a beery intermission is a great way to train!
