Pre thanksgiving weekend

Pre thanksgiving weekend is upon us!

Saturday agenda-race!

Here's what I found for the day of the full moon:

1. race for education 5k
2. race for recovery 5k
3. delray turkey trot
4. steps for healing 5k

Can you believe I couldn't find any notable races out of the local area? Well, I got lazy and did the latter because it was closest in proximity. I didn't care for the start time (8 am) but luckily, the cloud cover kept down some of the heat. However, not the humidity. I did what I could and when the dust cleared (especially the timing issues), I made the top ten and won my age group. Unfortunately, I got just a generic medal and sadly, didn't break 21. Happy to be on the podium.

Sunday agenda-race!

1. Philadelphia marathon
2. fall classic half/5k
3. inspiration 5k
4. girls on the run

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). I did the opposite today, and of the remaining, picked the furthest, eliminating the last 2. I did the 5k for speed work and the half course as training and for mileage. That tack on workout was a very long cool down at an easy pace. The task on hand was the 5k and here's my take, clint style:

The good: podium! mug award
The bad: course (2 loop)
The ugly: can't get 5k results yet (may have come & gone while I was training)
