5k race in Racine Wi. This was on an hard asphalt surface, but a trail looking over to a dump near a high school.
Small race cheap $17 entry fee. Leftover swag from others races in their series. I was 5 th overall.
Have to be careful running on hard surfaces two races in a row in three days. That's dangerous!

Had to log this, really more time worked but not logged.... but I am seriously and obsessive compulsive about getting every little sprout in small sectors that I can actually see the stuff growing. Amazing how tough that stuff is to eliminate. However since I actually have cleared some areas it will be interesting to see what next year will look like. Will I continue to get sprouts?
These areas need to have my bush whacking clothes on to lean into, reach into to pull or hack the stuff out. Also have paid hired hands to help. But it's all me to try to finish up whatever I can, except my south wall I will not get rid of as it's my privacy wall to my southern neighbors. Soon I will be able to walk through my trail and not see the buckthorn, wonder if I will get bored because of nothing to do but walk and enjoy!!

38 th annual Kenosha Turkey Day run.
Decided to run the 10k and have not run a 10k in two years.
Weather was cool and windy, so hard to dress right for the event.
Felt pretty good, but only 2nd in age group.

Did beat my goal of 8 min miles. Maybe 10k is my ideal distance??

Rec plex to run because I am not liking cold, wet and windy weather.

Old run down the road and back in 35 degree weather.
Hands got cold, rather be skiing in this weather .
