Monday recap - 03/09/20 (on Tuesday)

Happy Tuesday! Monday was super busy for me so I never got time to sit down and write my weekly recap. But, hey, that's life, right? I had a pretty crappy training week, but ended  with a pretty darn good race time (for me) on Sat. Here was my schedule -

Mon - 30 min walk
Tues - 60 min @ 134hr
Wed - 60 min @ 134 hr
Thurs - rest
Fri - 2 mile shakeout
Sat - Gate River 15k
Sun - 30 min walk

What actually happened -

Mon - 30 min walk
Tues - no run
Wed - 5k, 50 min run
Thurs - rest
Fri - no run, 30 min walk
Sat - Gate river 15k.... awesome race for me 2:19:04
Sun - 30 min walk

I don't know if you've ever done Gate River Run in Jax, but it's a pretty decent race. Well organized, great expo and awesome after party. My run club lucks out and gets to hand out chocolate milk from the Florida Dairy Farmers after the run... it's always a good time. The community comes out in full force to support the runners, offering oranges, water, and alcohol throughout the course. There is also live bands probably every mile - mile and a half. It's just a well planned race, and a lot of fun. And of course, there's the Green Monster bridge at the end to provide you with a nice challenge :)
