Friday was a rest day as I had decided to run the Posole Ole 5k sponsored by Bosque Running Shop and my buddy Likhaya Dayile. The weather forecast was for cold and cloudy but light winds and very little chance of precip. The forecast was dead on, 19 degrees, felt like 11 at the start.
Friday night I spent over two hours sitting at Likhaya's registering for the race and just shooting the breeze with him and Angie, the event organizer. The cause, Special Olympics, and the fact that Likhaya was the sponsor running shop were the reasons I ran the event but a big plus was the great long sleeve tech tee we got. HAHA.
Jodi decided to run it also so we got there in plenty of time to get her registered and walk around to get Balloon Fiesta field. I thought it funny that Jodi having been to Balloon Fiesta 48 times and a running event was the reason for our first time in the museum.
used to the cold. The run started right on time winding around
The run went well. I paced for Jodi, she had not run since returning from vacation and had not run a 5k with no walking since Day of the Tread so I was determined to help her finish this one without walking. She did that perfectly well.
Tomorrow, I hit the Foothills for at least 10 to train for my first event of the new year that will probably be the Coldwater Rumble in Goodyear (Phoenix), AZ the last weekend of January.
