First weekend of the month

First weekend of the month is here! So much going on. We are deep in preseason football, a cat 1 hurricane Hermine sweeps around Florida and hits the west side. Running season begins! Labor day follows.

Saturday agenda-race?

1. rnr Virginia beach half
2. power swim
3. save the jaguar 5k
4. mermaid day 5k

You can automatically rule out the former (out of FL) and the next (i am a land lover). I picked the latter because I never did it before. Clint time:

The good: podium, top age, finisher medal
The bad: heat, humidity, travel
The ugly: time

Sunday agenda-race?

1. labor day du/tri
2. king of the hill 5k

I passed on the former to do the latter. Eastwood time:

The good: finisher medal
The bad: heat, humidity, travel
The ugly: time, not even close to placing

I followed this with a visit to the weaver pig roast (8th annual, 2 shy of hill 5k) before the visit to my lady.

Monday agenda-race?

Happy labor day!

1. john clay 5k
2. canes cross country classic

I was still with my lady Cheryl, and since I'm no spring chicken, I decided to skip racing this day (no labor).
