Who knee oh!

Who knee oh! That's how June is pronounced in Spanish!

Saturday agenda-race?

I found the following:

1. NW track & field (actually began Friday)
2. 13.1 Chicago
3. road warriors 1800 mile run
4. summer sizzler

I normally do the former but on sunday since most of my events are on that day plus I have to wait all day; pass. #2 is eliminated=out of state. #4 began today but goes thru July 4th. I just don't have that kind of time nor endurance; 86ed! I was planning on the latter but since I'd have to travel to west coast of Florida under rain conditions and limited time, I decided against it, taking into account for injury as well. Instead, I pulled out my inlines & rolled a 10 k.

Sunday agenda-race!

1. cleft lip and palate 5k
2. trifecta #1
3. Naples du

Passed on the middle one because I had no swimmer. I would normally do the former, especially since it's a local race but opted for the latter because it's an inaugural.

This was the first duathlon in Naples since ??? It is almost my first individual duathlon of the year! It was hot and humid as expected but surprisingly, not windy. First run, no problem, except for the boardwalk section (over a half mile of that). However, the bike was a struggle, especially when I went longer off course due to lack of signage and personnel. Once I got back on the run, I hung in there to finish. By the grace of God, I won my age group. I was the dead last person to finish under an hour (16 oa). Ready for the next one!
