Running season begins!

Running season begins! It's the unofficial start.

Saturday agenda-race?

I considered the following:

1. legacy run 5k
2. john clay 5k
3. king of hill 5k + trail

The first 2 are on the FL west coast. Having just did that last week, I passed & selected the latter. However, I ran into many problems:

1. difficulty reaching the one responsible to team comps
2. failure to get registered (both above & on site, reasons following)
3. got lost trying to find vista view park (gps didn't recognize & vista view 360 brochure sent me 360)
4. back up getting into the park; can u believe they charged me 2 get into that dump?

Therefore, instead of a search & rescue (go for award), it became a search & recover (train &/or pace). I was my opportunity to give back to the community and Emily was selected. Along with Louis, she ran good & got 3rd in her class. I may have been the same had I raced hard.

Sunday agenda-race?

Found only 1, rnr half VA. I cant afford to travel at this time, so training it is. I got on my since I'm gonna need to race it next week. Very hot & humid and wind kick in mid-ride.

Monday agenda-race?

Happy labor day! Race? Yes! I had to travel but I did the canes cross country 5k. Although I failed to break 20, I at least made the podium (2nd to some local with low 19). It was hot & humid, lots of grass, roots & dirt.
