Post birthday weekend

Post birthday weekend has arrived; my first weekend competing as a senior in my age group.

Saturday agenda-race!

Here's what I have on the docket for the first Saturday after my birthday:

1. Spartan race NV, NJ
2. 7 mile bridge run
3. for the love of children 5k
4. strides for education 5k
5. DTR endurance challenge 50k, 13.1, 10k, 5k
6.la roootaaa regataaa 4.2/8.4 m
7. ficpa 1040 5k/10k

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). The latter 2 were closest in proximity-#6 was not a run, so no. #7 is but I did another instead. I passed on the endurance & bridge run since im having trouble with the 5ks. Of the remaining, I picked #4. Unfortunately, the nightmare of my last race continued today.

The good: podium (I won my age cat)
The bad: late start (8), heat and humidity
The ugly: time (internal conditions)

Sunday agenda-race!

Here's what I have on the docket for the first Sunday after my birthday:

1. south beach triathlon
2. race to end homelessness 5k.

Considering that I don't swim, guess which one I did? Unfortunately, the nightmare of my last race continued but worse.

The good: podium (3r in my age cat)
The bad: late start (8), heat and humidity worse
The ugly: time (internal conditions), passed out

Monday agenda-boston marathon

I will not be racing that this year but I had the honor in my past. Good luck to all who participate.
