9/11 anniversary weekend

9/11 anniversary weekend is upon us! It is the 14th annual of that fateful day of terrorism. This weekend, many races are dedicated in honor of this day.

Friday-9/11 terrorist attack on the US.

Saturday agenda-race?

Here is what i considered for today:

1. Jeff Anna's firefighters 5k
2. ups 5k

The latter is closest in proximity but worst in categories (only 1 overall, then fall to age), therefore, i chose the former. In order to be my best for a relay, i chose to complete rather than compete. that means i did this for training (easy pace) then collect the finishers medal. It was a good thing, as the weather was brutally hot and humid.

Sunday agenda-race?

Here is what i considered for today:

1. biggest loser half WI
2. Boston 13.1
3. tunnels to towers 5k
4. mr trilogy bonus round du/tri

You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL). Everyone expected me to be at #3 but i picked the latter by request of Tommy, swimmer of prior relays this year.

Now lets sum this up Clint style:

The good: top male relay, i had top bike time among male relays
The bad: my time on bike
The ugly: hot and humid, double loop on bike (2x the bridge)

When i completed the bike, i decided to let the swimmer run since i felt a little pain in left ankle and hes more rested. We were the top male relay and 3rd of all teams; good day at the 'office'.

closing on a high note, NFL football is back!

honorable mention
