President's day weekend

President's day weekend is here! President's day is on Monday, following this weekend. Unfortunately for me, I have to work on that day, so it's no holiday for me.

Saturday agenda-race?

Here is what I found for this day:

1. toga 5k
2. ride 4 orphans bike ride
3. ft Lauderdale 5k
4. Sheridan house 5k

The former was the furthest while the latter the closest; none were in Miami. The former started the latest (10 am) while #3 was the soonest verifiable start time. I have done all but the bike ride. I don't like the #3 venue. Both the former and latter were fun runs; I picked the latter. Clint time:

The good: finisher medal, long sleeve tech shirt
The bad: weather (hot and humid), age groups (mine was 50+), internal conditions
The ugly: no awards, course (3 loops), late start (past 9 am)

Sunday agenda-race?

Here is what I found for this day:

1. Michelob ultra el paso marathon
2. publix A1A marathon, half and 6k

You can rule out the former (out of FL) so its obvious I went to the latter. Not ready for the longer distances and higher fees, I did the 6k. This time, my internal conditions were fine. Eastwood time:

The good: finisher medal, tech shirt, podium (1 age), cooler weather (overcast), 6:30 start
The bad: late with results
The ugly: parking, results not posted online
