Hurricane season

Hurricane season officially begins today, although God may start sooner and end later (this is his universe).

Saturday agenda-race!

Now, how will I start the season and month?

1. Spartan race NY tri state, Vancouver
2. color me rad OR, TN, CO
3. VA wine country half
4. mud dogs mud run
5. motivation man tri
6. be a hero, save an angel

You can automatically rule out the first 3 (out of FL). without a swimmer this year, #5 is out. With choice of travel or stay near home, I chose the latter.

I think I'll sum this up Clint Eastwood style:

The good: real close in proximity, 2 oa (best of year), broke 20
The bad: the course (twisty, turny), hot & humid
The ugly: award (generic medal), start time

Today's race reminded me of the season because I got blown away by Jon!

Sunday agenda-race!

These are the events I considered for this day:

1. Spartan race NY tri state
2. rnr Seattle
3. the fitness triathlon
4. run for the ribbons
5. twilight 5k

You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL).  with a swimmer this year, #3 is in, knocking out #4. The latter was still possible but not feasible.

It was the return of my allegiance with 2 athletes from the west side (of FL). The relay was appropriately named the tri B's, with the swimmer Brittany, rival and friend j Beagle on the bike and yours truly on the run. This was my first reverse tri relay so I started us off. I ran the best I could but pulled in an average time so therefore failed to help team begin in the lead. When the dust cleared, we made the podium at 3/5 mixed relays that received awards. Awesome post race (5 star) and nice finisher medal.
