Sunday morning, November 1. The sun rises, and quickly we reach 80 degrees, brilliant sunshine and plenty of humidity for the 8:15 start of the Battleship 5k road race on the banks of the Cape Fear River in Wilmington, NC. Couldnt have asked for a more fun time than to run the race with veteran tri-athletes Hank and Dave Johnson of Smithfield, NC. Out the road, up over the bridge spanning the river, and then back again, this time into the wind. A real tester, but Dave was an age group winner, as was I. Of course, Hank could have handliy picked up an award in his age group, but gentleman that he is, he paced back witht old-timers Dave and Bob.
