Transition weekend

I dub this weekend as such because yesterday ended last month (June) & today began a new month (July). I now will introduce trivia for a more interactive experience for all you loyal readers. Most of the time, the answers will be reveal at the conclusion of the blog.

Saturday agenda-freedom 5k

Trivia 1- which of the following applied to yesterday?
a. 7 year anniversary of home "ownership".
b. race reached record number of participants.
c. the day was very hot & humid.
d. all of the above.
e. none of the above.

Trivia 2- which of the following conditions affected my performance?

a. long drive to site (external & internal).
b. weather (external).
c. race course (external).
d. all of the above.

Despite all negative the aspects discerned from the trivia, I was able to beat last year's time by a few seconds. I had to rely on experience, since at the start, I was barely in 30th position, with 3 women in front. By the finish, I cut that in half & beat all the ladies. The field was tough but I outsprinted a master to place 2nd to teammate David K. In fact, Premier running had a good showout & success, shutting down all of runner's depot entrants.

Trivia 3- which of the following occurred at this race?
a. I won a prize for dressing in accordance with independence day.
b. All of the master winners were under 19 minutes.
c. 2 masters that have beaten me in the past, failed to make the cut (be under 19).
d. all of the above.

Trivia 4- which of the following were served at this event?
a. pancakes
b. sports drink
c. beer
d. all of the above
e. none of the above

Today was quite important. Why?

Trivia 5-
a. began a new month
b. served as training
c. relay team meeting
d. all of the above
e. none of the above

Although I missed Mike, I began with 'Don Pan ' riders, but got dropped when an impatient driver cut in front of me. Granted, he had the right of way, but yet still disappointing. I latched on to a slower group till the Rick, then lost them. Since my watch failed, I have to estimate the time & it was about a hour & 45 minutes;not bad for the extended course.

Million dollar question- what events will I do from now until next Monday?

Honorable mention

* Several teammates from Premier racing placed, including both owners, Gary & Adrienne.
* Met with a nice teacher & the teacher's pet
* I did a secondary workout (du practice with Dave K)

Answers=e,d,d,b,d. the million $ one will be revealed next week.
