First weekend in December

First weekend in December is upon us!

Saturday agenda-race!

Check out my selection for the first Saturday of the month:

1. Spartan race CA
2. reggae marathon
3. jingle bell jog 5k
4. cca 5k
5. voice of love jingle bell jog
6. run for education 5k
7. tap n run
8. run for optimism 5k
9. 5k holiday 5k

You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL/US). La penultima (7) was a fun run, so its out. Incredibly, there were 4 races in my county (scratch 3,4)! I couldn't race them all but the choice was easy because the latter was put on my spencer's law firm! Also, it was an inaugural and his first as race director. Due to his popularity, he had the support of a high quality field, usually my demise. I set in my mind to break 21, even though I would likely not place. However, by the grace of God, I had my fastest time in months (under 21 and needed it), enabling me to win my age group.

Sunday agenda-race!

Check out my selection for the first Sunday of the month:

1. palm beaches marathon
2. kid inlet challenge (cycling)
3. its a wonderful run 5k
4. double dash 5k

You can automatically rule out the second since its a non running event. I planned on the former but cost was major deterrence. I like #3 but chose the latter due to my teammate, Emily. I am glad she asked me as this inaugural race was also the first time you must have a team in order to compete. She came off a stellar performance at jingle bell jog the previous day and repeated this day. Although I broke 21 again (praise the Lord), I was much slower. Fortunately, our combined time was the fastest of all co-relays. Therefore, 'salt and pepper' is here as champs!
