1st weekend 2009

Like Obama will be tested, I was. In keeping with resolution 10, I had to pass on 2 races.

Saturday agenda-bridge buster 5k

This race was held in Ft pierce. Since I have never run this before, this one could qualify for the 'been there, done that' rule, meaning I'd do it because I never did it before. Since it would take nearly 2 1/2 just to get there, & I didn't get to bed until midnight, around that time, I decided to scrap the double header in lieu of training. Being in a financial bind, this was best way to mitigate my damages. I did the ' tour de falls (shopping mall), which was nearly 9 miles.

Sunday agenda-Deleon springs event

I have been here before, but last time, my dad & I did the half. I was planning on the 5k but it was gonna take 2 1/2 from the ft pierce. That means over 5 hours to return home. Think I'll follow one of my resolutions & pass. Instead, I did a decent ride on my bike.

It was a disappointing weekend but the training was necessary. I was made aware of a triathlon/duathlon clinic but the website did not mention a race. I found out after the fact that they had a race. However, even if I went, my division was extremely competitive.

My dad & I had previously done the half marathon years back. Since they offered a 5k as well, I planned on doing that. This was canned when the first one failed.
