Mid May updates

What up yall! It's the Headbangin Triathlete here. So it's been forever and a day since I last posted. There has been a lot going on in my world since March so time and energy have been at a premium. The spring racing season is underway and myself and the rest of the NFD runners here in Noblesville are coming into form. So for starters NFD finished 5th overall in the badge match at this years 500 Festival Mini Marathon. Fishers FD finished in 4th beating us by 26 points. Yours truly also had the best mini yet running 1:29:24 and a top 500 finish. Overall I was 478. That was out of 29,000 plus finishers.

This weekend the NFD runners did the Dances With Dirt extreme trail relay. The team consisted of myself and 3 others from the department. We could not find a fifth runner so we ran with 4. All throughout this 62 mile trail relay we were hearing we were in 4th and maybe 5th overall. This was made even much sweeter by the fact that we were putting the hurt on Fishers Fire Dept. who beat us a week earlier in the mini. Well all said and done with Handicaps for the other teams we finished 20th out of 90 and due to a timing issue the results show Fishers FD as beating us. we ran the race straight up and if you go off of overall time alone we finished 9th overall.

Well thats all for now. Next up for me is a solo run at the Warbird Brewery 10k
