Labor day weekend

Labor day weekend is here! Best of all, so is the running season! Therefore, by the grace of God, I shall attempt a trifecta.

Saturday agenda-race?

Here is what I found for the first Saturday of the month:

1. save the jaguar 5k
2. art walk 4 autism 5k
3. gorun labor day 5k

I found a race in my normal tri-county area, with the former the furthest and the latter the closest in proximity. Guess which one I did?

Naturally, I took the latter, especially since gas prices went up since hurricane Harvey. Clint synopsis:

The good: completed my first 5k of the '17-'18 run season, finisher medal
The bad: still hot and humid, not cleared to run
The ugly: obviously, didn't place; however, even healthy, I wouldn't have (way too fast)

Sunday agenda-race?

Here is what I found for the first Sunday of the month:

1. Disneyland half, 10k, 5k
2. rnr Virginia beach half, 5k
3. mr labor day du/tri
4. king of the hill 5k

You can automatically rule out the first 2 (out of FL). I not in the shape for the next plus I already signed up for the latter. Eastwood synopsis:

The good: completed my second 5k of the '17-'18 run season, finisher medal
The bad: still hot and humid, not cleared to run
The ugly: obviously, didn't place; however, even healthy, I wouldn't have. I walked beside a friend to do a surprisingly decent time, considering. She was amazed that my walk was about as fast as her running.

Monday agenda-race?

Here is what I found for the first Monday of the month:

1. canes cross country classic
2. john clay 5k
3. labor day 5k

I have done the former but it is the furthest away. The next is also on the west coast, so I picked the latter. Clint Eastwood time:

The good: completed my third 5k of the '17-'18 run season, thus completing the trifecta
The bad: still hot and humid, not cleared to run
The ugly: no finisher medal, obviously, didn't place; however, if healthy, I could have

In conclusion, the count down:

3 events (5k) completed
2 finisher medals
1 great weekend (trifecta completed)
0 awards (boo hoo)
