Positive 5k tune up effort

February 16, Sunday

1st place in Old Guy division !  29:23

So, I entered Mardi Gras 5K on a whim two days ago just  as a tune-up for my annual Lighthouse 5K on the 29th.  It was not an easy course on the feet.  About 90% of the course was on spongy sand. I would call it about an 85 to 90% effort on my part. I emerged from the race with no foot or leg issues. My goal, after seeing the race conditions, was to try to break 30 minutes.  I accomplished that and finished first in the 75+ division.  All together a positive morning.  Plus I get a free draft at the near by Sunset Beach Bar with lunch. 🙂  🙂    On to more work and the Lighthouse!
