Last weekend of first half ('14)

Last weekend of first half ('14) is upon us!

Saturday agenda-race?

Not much to choose from:

1. Spartan race UT, CD
2. sugden stride 5k
3. freedom 5k
4. down2earth 5/10/half

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL/US). I passed on the latter even though it was closest in proximity. I like both of the remaining races listed but could only pick one. I decided to return the one that began my 2 time overall champion reign in the elite series, much like the Miami heat's back to back accomplishment. Unfortunately for me, things have changed. I'm a bit slower, increase in faster runners and rule changes. Today, I won my age group  but was given second due to double dipping (master winner beat me). No more glass award, now traditional medal; it was big and nice. I just cleared the bakers dozen to close out the month.

Sunday agenda-race?

1. Spartan race CD
2. down2earth 5/10/half trail.

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL/US). I passed on the latter even though it was closest in proximity. Carbon copy, right? Well, since that eliminates all, it means I didn't race this day and opted for light training instead.
