Fathers day weekend

Fathers day weekend is upon us! The drought continues as I could find no local races but did find a fun run.

Saturday agenda-race?

Yes and no. This is what I could muster up:

1. color me rad 5k WA, CA
2. Spartan Ottawa
3. summer sizzler 5k
4. fathers day triathlon festival
5. la roootaaa regataaa

You can automatically eliminate the first 2 (out of FL). the only local one I found was the latter, but its paddle boarding; not my cup of tea. I have done #3 but carpooling; I dreaded the solo trip. Therefore, I opted to train and dusted off my inlines for a 10k roll.

Sunday agenda-race!

Happy father's day! Only a small selection considered:

1. color me rad 5k PA
2. Spartan Ottawa
3. fathers day 5k
4. fathers day triathlon festival

You can automatically eliminate the first 2 (out of FL). I saw #3, thought it was only a fun run and decided on the latter, even though much further north because I never did it before.

The fathers day triathlon festival featured an Olympic tri and du on Saturday and the sprint tri and du on Sunday. I wanted to race both days but would've had insufficient time and rest for the former so I chose only the latter.

It's best I sum this up Clint Eastwood style:

The good: podium (2 in ag)
The bad: 2 in ag (not in top ten nor top of ag), run section, triathletes converted to du, decreasing chances for those who already committed to place within sport.
The ugly: my times, cross country runs (2.8 miles), grey medal if place, nothing for finish, $, no du relays, hot and humid
