On The Pegs MARIO ROMAN Mario Roman moved from fourth place on the first lap to second place at the finish of the 30-minute- plus-one-lap final. “I was fourth at the start and I struggled a little bit to pass Colton and Wade because the course this year was pretty much one line. I didn’t want to waste energy chang- ing lines, so I followed them until Wade made a mistake. In the middle of the race I was able to pass him, and then I pushed hard but Manni was just too far away.” 92
