Super weekend

Super weekend not only applies to the fact that the super bowl will occur tomorrow but for me as an the athlete. Today is my first 5k run since the horrible mishap. FYI-the Superbowl has been held for every year I've been born so you know my age in a little over 2 months!

Saturday agenda-race!

Great selection today. These are the following on my list:

1. warrior dash (lake wales)
2. Melbourne music 5k/8k
3. sari center 5k (wpb)
4. MADD dash
5. walk for wishes 5k
6. drawn to the beach
7. color me rad 5k (FL)
8. color me rad 5k (TX)
9. st Thomas alumni 5k

Due to my condition, I wimped out and took the closest in proximity; the latter. Let me break it down to you Clint Eastwood style:

The good: got 'on the podium' 2 master, top ten. trophy!
The bad: course was not all asphalt (cross country)
The ugly: time, age categories

Sunday agenda-race!

Not as many but still good:

1. Texas half
2. Melbourne music half/full marathon
3. butterfly run 5k
4. jcc David posnack 5k/10k
5. fiu color run

With 2 'local' events, I pass on the first two and was able to complete the last two for a double header.

First event: race- jcc David posnack 5k/10k

Let me break it down to you Clint Eastwood style once again:

The good: got 'on the podium' 2 oa, top master!
The bad: time, had to leave to attempt a double header
The ugly: couldn't catch a kid 1/3 my age! no hardware today because I left before award ceremony

Second event: fun run-fiu color run

Having enjoyed the blessings of the Lord of #1 being able to run again, albeit, injured and #2 having 2 top ten races & hardware despite that, I closed out with a fun run that seems to be trending. For not competitive runners, this is a blast, otherwise, not my cup of tea. If nothing else available or as additional, do count me in.

With the lord's help, you can't keep a good man down; c u at the races!
