2

2; that's my number for this weekend!

Saturday agenda-race!

I love that the running season is back! so many to choose from this day:

1. fenway time trial (spartan race MA)
2. delray turkey trot
3. miles for makayla 5k
4. bull run
5. 5k run for hunger
6. pinecrest 5k
7. miracle run

Eliminate the former=out of state. With this many races, I was able to skip palm beach, wiping out 2 and 3. I found out about #6 too late so I wound up doing a double header (2) with the same timing company, accuchip; strike #4.

The first race was #5. Originally, I had about 2 hours between the finish of the first to start of second between 2 counties. However, since it started nearly 40 minutes late, I was afraid my mission might fail. As soon as I finished the 5k, had I to leave without know results nor an award to have a chance at the 2nd race.

The latter (race 2) closed out the day. It was not a 5k (short) so I got a record time. Despite the distance, I had to run to ensure placement, and by the grace of God, I was second (2) only to Jon. I got a generic medal & rushed home for results & rest (sick)

Sunday agenda-race!

Some more to choose from this day:

a. norcal beast (spartan race)
b. usatf-fl jr Olympics regional cc championships (jax)
c. purple stride 5k
d. rnr Latin music half

Eliminate the former=out of state. b=strike 2, for kids & extremely far. Would do c. but need d. since I don't do enough long runs.

I come again as a 2 hour pacer representing runners depot for the 2nd time. I am happy to have done 2 halves within 2 weeks in preparation for the Disney marathon next year. This time, the course was more challenging. Less wind but more heat & humidity (not really bad). I did a better job this time, spot on in terms of the clock. I had to do this still battling illness.
