100 Triathlons
Go to the early blogs to read how I got into triathlons. Click on any picture to enlarge it. "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood...who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly." Theodore Roosevelt 1910

Real Florida 5k10k in Wekiwa Springs State Park

Cold morning for the Real Florida 5k10k trail run this morning. 51’f at the start and I purposely underdressed. Felt strong throughout the run, even on the rugged uphills. 

Finished first in Senior Masters division (+60) with a 59:32 time with 9:35 mile splits for the 6.3 miles; 22 out of 76 in the 10k. Very happy with the results considering it’s only been 2 weeks since my Ultrarun. Record turnout with 364 runners under sunny skies. 

Friends Dustin Radney (1st Male OA 10k), Ashley Jeanne Samples (2nd OA/1st Female 5k), and Jim Payne (1st Male 60-64) all had fast races.


Sträva tracking showed I climbed 221' and burned 1,037 calories.  Didn't get many photos as I so busy.
