Mother's day weekend

Mother's day weekend is upon us!

Saturday agenda-race!

Here's what I found for this day:

1. Spartan race NY, MT, TX
2. santa Barbara wine country marathon
3. hammerhead bike ride 100/50k
4. miles for moffitt
5. live like jake 5k
6. women for women 10k/5k
7. hugs for hope 5k
8. run for the roses 5k

You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL). With enough standard races, strike #3. #6 is not for my type. Although no race in Miami, I actually picked the latter because its closest in proximity.

In this race, it's often called 'catch them if you can' because the ladies get a 5 minute head start. This was held at a new venue but old in that many races are run at charnow park. Last time I ran here, I faded at the finish. Unfortunately, I barely made it under 22 but the good news is that I was able to win age group and that time was used on our repeat victory to place in the odd couple category. Despite my lousy time, we (Emily was my partner again) were the 2nd best team of them all. The finishers medal was good also.

Sunday agenda-race?

1. Spartan race MT, TX
2. laCroix mother's day 5k

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL). Guess where I went?

Due to injury and expense, I did not race this but I did complete the event. Afterwards, off to see my parents, especially mom!
