Daylight savings weekend

Daylight savings weekend is upon us! Unfortunately, we must spring forward and lose an hour!

Friday agenda-Spartan cruise Bahamas

Obviously, I passed on this one for 2 reasons. First, out of US. Second, had to work.

Saturday agenda-race!

Here's what I saw for the last day before the time change:

1. Spartan race GA
2. run for compassion 5k
3. spring sprint 5k
4. springfest 5k/12k
5. st patricks 10k
6. march against hunger 5k
7. the biggest loser 5k/10k Miami
8. MS bike breakaway (to) key largo
9. coconut 5k
10. run like bella 5k

You can automatically rule out the former-out of FL. I passed on 3 and 4, the next furthest. I didn't need the rest with the last 2 being in Miami. I wimped out and took the latter because it was the closest in proximity.

The good: I was 3 oa
The bad: I was given top age, wind, windy course
The ugly: age categories- only 1 overall and age group (ten year)

Sunday agenda-race!

Here's what I saw for the first day after the time change:

1. charlotte county senior games 5k and 10k cycle
2. I care, I cure, I run 5k
3. voices against brain cancer 5k
4. cooper city Richardson 5k
5. MS bike breakaway (from) key largo
6. hunger walk and 5k run

With enough local events, I didn't need the former. I also passed on the breakaway (2 day cycling event). Although the furthest away, I picked the latter since its an inaugural. It almost became a disaster as I had to wait for a train to pass in mid race, approaching second loop. By the grace of God, I was able to retain 2nd overall despite that. Although the time appears worse (due to the delay) than the previous day, I actually ran better.
