April fool's weekend.

Today is the day you cant believe everything you hear. Why? April fool's day! Happy April fool's weekend.

Saturday agenda-race?

This is what I considered for the first day of the month:

1. roar thru ybor 5k
2. rayz awareness 5k
3. stop drop and run 5k
4. shake rattle and run 5k
5. mote run for the turtles 5k
6. 7 mile bridge
7. superintendent 5k
8. riverwalk
9. walk for wishes 5k

With enough events on the east side, I pass on the first 2. I chose the latter (closest in proximity). I was happy to actually see Emily throughout the entire race (for about a mile aside/near). A little April fools with results as they had me winning 45-49. Clint, take it away:

the good: top ten, won age, gr8 time, finisher medals

the bad: late start, cotton tshirt, didn't break 23 by a few secs

the ugly: summer like heat/humidity

Sunday agenda-race?

1. rnr Raleigh marathon

2. lake avalon reverse du/tri + 5k

3. 5k for a better day

4. thin mint sprint (Hollywood)

5. pill box flamingo strut

6. touch of love 5k

7. SoBe tri

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). I thought about the next, since I have done it before, but I cut my losses on the travel (FL west coast). The latter was the closest in proximity but without a swimmer, eliminate that one. I decided on a tried and true event, #3.

This day was much worse than the previous. Eastwood time:

The good: podium
The bad: 2 age, late start, cotton tshirt, no finisher medals
The ugly: august summer heat and humidity, failed to break 25, race delayed 10+ min

Praise the Lord for another dual podium weekend and for the survival mode on Sunday.
