Near mid month, still crisis!

Near mid month, still crisis! This weekend is just 3 days shy of the middle of july and already, so much drama. A personal issue began the week. rainy weather all week. The host country brazil gets decimated by Germany, just in the first half alone! No more big 3 in Miami as king james defects back to Cleveland; aka LeGone! This is one of the worst racing drought weekends thus far.

Saturday agenda-race?

This is what I could dig up:

1. Spartan race PA, CD
2. mr ft Desoto series 1
3. strider track meet

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL/USA). Rather than travel far, I picked the latter. This year, they removed 2 events (200 & 100) & added another (4x400 relay). This decision forced me to race less since there were not enough to form a 2nd team in time. Also, due to the race drought, more competitive people showed up, so this year, I didn't fair as well. 200 fun run was added at last minute. Glass time:

Half full: showed in 400, 800 & completed all events I entered, sub 6 in the mile.
Half empty: aforementioned deleted events, not on a relay, didn't place in mile & way off in keno prediction run.

Sunday agenda-race?

This is what I could muster:

1. Spartan race PA
2. military run 6k

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). Found out about the latter after the fact I did a long training run, so therefore, I didn't race.
