The first weekend of September

The first weekend of September is upon us! let the running season begin!

Saturday agenda-race?

Here is what i looked at today:

1. spartan race NY
2. wine country half CD
3. Disney land half
4. john clay 5k
5. save the jaguars 5k
6. king of the hill 5k

You can automatically rule out the first 3 (out of FL). With enough local races on my coast, scratch #4. I originally planned on #5 (shouldve stayed with that as i would've won my age cat) but due to inclement weather yesterday afternoon, chose the latter (closest in proximity). However, i didn't compete for speed but rather as training, doing anything from walking to running. Despite that, my time was good enough for 3 age; no award other finish.

Sunday agenda-race?

This is what i found for this day:

1. Chicago half
2. labor day du/tri
3. hero 5k

 You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). While i like the next one, i chose the latter to support the racing team (runners depot). I didn't expect to place & unfortunately, that came to fruition but I was close (4th), which did surprise me. I had a great first mile, but sadly, after being cut off by somebody who chose to walk around the turn around (i ended up following suit). i was unable to resume my pace, therefore i came up short; my first loss of the season.

Sunday agenda-race?

Nope, but happy labor day. I did find a race but it was on the west coast of FL. I did a nice bike ride instead before all the bad weather came forth.
