who? lee, oh!

who? lee, oh! That's my play on the Spanish word for july (Julio). Some people are named after that as well, fyi.

Thursday agenda-run, sweat and beers

I did a rare weeknight race. I have done it before but the weather was completely different. Usually, the sun it out strong along with the heat and humidity, and sometimes wind. This time, it rained throughout, which did quench much of the heat. Had to step through lots of puddles.

The good: finally broke 21 on this course and placed!
The bad: weather, time, medal as award
The ugly: time, given 3 in 10 yr cat (would've won my norm ag)

Saturday agenda-race!

Back to normal, at least for summer:

1. color me rad 5k CD x2
2. Spartan race IL
3. fast cat 5k
3. 5k sunset run
4. dreher park 5k
5. strider track meet

This was the day because I had the opportunity to do a double event header!
You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL). The latter was supposed to occur last Saturday but too much lightning and rain forced its cancellation. Sadly, I rode up into it, wasting time & gas. Therefore, I chose the closest events in proximity.

Morning agenda-dreher park 5k

Evening agenda-strider track meet

Sunday agenda-race?

1. color me rad 5k NY
2. Spartan race IL, CD
3. rnr marathon IL
4. wine country half CA
5. kb trilogy 2

Not! why? For starters, all but the latter are out of FL! I knew I would not be near 100% after double event header with the latter amounting to speed work so I intended to do a relay. When the swimmer fell through, the last option would be a du solo. Im so glad I didn't because not only was it expensive (over $100) but I probably would not place in the tight, sore condition I was in. However, in order to prepare for the next one, I got a taste of what it would be like. This event is tradition and good to do so i'll prepare for next month.
