how did THAT work out for you?!?

Last week, I took it to the streets. It was all about breaking the day.  So, I competed in the DayBreak 10 Miler & 5K Race.  The weather was next to perfect at 61 degrees!  Not one of my strongest performances, but I was pleased with my 5K results.  I placed third in the category of Male Masters Overall.  Yippee!  Here is a picture of me sporting my medals and some random shots from that day …

Not bad, wouldn’t you agree???  April is still the start of the race season and there is time to train harder and perform better in the days and weeks to come.  Snap at you later. BE EZ. PEACE!!! #moseawell #beEZpeace
