Who knee oh

Who knee oh; that's how june sounds in Spanish. This weekend begins a racing drought, contrary to all the rain we have received thus far all week.

Friday agenda-NW track and field classic day 1

Naturally, I couldn't make any event on this day

Saturday agenda-race?

1. no child wet behind 5k
2. NW track and field classic day 2

Guess what I did? After the former, I visited the latter but it was raining cats and dogs, so I passed on it again. This was one of those obscure races that Jon finds. Ironically, he was the one timing the event. Clint eastwood time:

The good: podium, top ten, overcast (reduce heat)
The bad: got passed by a woman, no finisher medal, 2nd (by 10 seconds), walked once
The ugly: start time (8), late start (delay), course (including blocked by a gate) not clearly marked, humidity, medal, post race (no oranges nor sports drink), no lead cyclist/vehicle, part on grass

Sunday agenda-race?

1. NW track and field classic day 3
2. DTR moonlight run (trail, I believe)

Guess what I did? Not race! Instead, I trained. I did just over 8 1/2 miles (walked 2 near end due to the extreme heat and humidity).
