Had a double header yesterday. The Long Beach Aloha 5k in the morning and then the Dodgers Sunset 5k in the evening. I hit up a couple of local museums and had some tasty food to offset my calorie usage...
I ran the Rockfest Half Marathon in Hampton, New Hampshire on Sunday October 6, 2024.
Beautiful running weather. 44 degrees at the start. Very nice sunny day!
Did the John Wayne Grit Series 10k this morning in Lone Pine, CA. It was freezing and 30mph winds... not great... but I finished and got my cup. A bit wind burnt. Photo of the 'medal' cup alongside a PBR at Jake's Saloon this evening.
Small race on Sunday, November 3, 2024. Run for the Dogs 5k in Deerfield, NH.
Part of the run was through fields at the fair grounds. A lot of dogs were on hand.
I felt a little out of place, not having a dog to run with. Overall a good run on a
cool morning. (30 degrees F)
Ran the Palm Springs Santa Paws 5k on Saturday (not my photo)-
The run comes with a Santa costume... lets just say mine was pretty ragged by the end. We visited the Living Desert zoo afterward and had a great day... but beware... there is ALWAYS a Burrowing Owl somewhere judging you...
(This is my photo... MUCH better than a shot of the medal from the run :-D)
San Deigo 5k this morning. I gotta push hard into the last month for my half training... I almost feel ashamed with my post race bottomless mimosas after my effort this morning.
5k double header this weekend for me... Derby Day 5k at Santa Anita racetrack and through the Los Angeles Arboretum on saturday and the Long Beach Grand Prix 5k this morning. Less than a month to my half...
The Indianapolis Indy Mini 500 Half Marathon has been accomplished... aling with then showering, packing up, driving 2 hrs south, and attending the Kentucky Derby in the same day! We're touring distilleries today...
The run is very well put together! A TON of on course support, tons of live music groups, and tons of of water/gatorade stops. I honestly think I was more hydrated after the run than when I started it. Get out there and do this one if you can. Highly recommended.
