Event: Resolute Runner 5k
10 AM
Run / Hike race 26:57 [3] 3.2 mi (8:25 / mi) +61ft 8:16 / mi
slept:6.0 weight:108.9lbs shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2017)
Resolute Runner 5k race in Arvada.
I was up multiple times after midnight due to an upset stomach, so I wasn't sure I was going to make it to this race -- but I eventually felt better and got to sleep.
I got to the race plenty early but almost missed the start b/c the clock in my car was 15 minutes slow (and I was sitting in there to stay warm). Car was also slow to crank this morning, so maybe there's a battery issue... Thankfully I glanced at my phone three minutes before the start. :-P
It was about 16°F, but I had the right layers and there wasn't any wind -- pleasant!
I finished 5th out of 63 runners in F40-49 -- pretty happy with that, except that I wish I had somehow found another ~20 seconds to make it into 3rd place...
It was fun to see John, Amy & Fiona there, along with some of my LoCO friends.

12 PM
Run / Hike 33:46 [3] 3.16 mi (10:41 / mi) +203ft 10:04 / mi
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2017)
LoCO / Roost New Year's Day group run w/ lunch & beer afterwards.
I planned to only do about two easy miles (after running the race this morning), but I ended up at 2.7 and then I figured I'd round up to three...and walk the rest.
The organizer suggested we all bring unwanted / gently-used running gear for a swap. I brought the (unworn) Tom Brady-style hat from this morning's race and left with some awesome Lole tights. What the what!? They're not exactly the right size but close enough.
