The end?

The end? Yesterday was the end of the Mayan calendar but most translated that to the end of the world. It also officially began the winter solstice. I felt it a bit at night but especially Saturday morning.

Saturday agenda-race!

It is the end of races for me before Christmas so I was trying to race hard and do my best time in a long time. That was quickly dashed. Only found 3 events:

1. Santa hustle WI
2. jingle bell jog
3. a positive step new years 5k

I cant afford long travel to the former nor the latter wins, so the center wins. 1 more time for my man Clint:

The good: able to race this weekend, cold weather
The bad: windy, didn't break 20. too cold
The ugly: got outsprinted & didn't place (lost 3 by 3 seconds)

Sunday agenda-race?

I actually found 1, Santa hustle TX 5k, which is part of a series. Needless to say, I had to pass on it to mitigate financial damage. I ended up training with long time friend Earl. we ran about 8 miles while shooting the breeze.

Monday agenda-12 miles of Christmas

A fun run put on by and held at runners depot. I had a good time meeting all my friends and after this, completed a total of about 23 miles over the weekend.

Merry Christmas everybody! The next report follows the holy holiday. Remember, Jesus is the reason for the season, not a fat man in a funny red suit & hat!
