Lake Nona 5k 2018 - Race Recap

Whew! Another 5k in the books. And this one was HOT! HOT! HOT! So, freaking hot. I wish I had thought to take a screenshot of the temperature at start time. I did find this on the Run Nona event page and I would fully agree that the temp was hovering around 89 degrees. Remember though that is not accounting for the "Feels Like" temp. It was stupid hot. We still had a blast though! We have actually never been out to Lake Nona. We don't have a need really to go that far so this was new to us. It is about a 45 minute drive. Will fell asleep on the way there which is good and bad. Good because he was able to stay up later without getting ridiculous at all. Bad because he doesn't wake up nice usually from naps.

The kids and I left in the afternoon with Jack and Steven came when he got off work. He was working in Cocoa for the day so it made more sense for him to go straight from there rather than home first. Plus, with Jack we were limited on space in my car so we almost needed him to drive his truck just for the added space. The trip up was uneventful except for some heavy patched of rain. Steven got a lot more rain on his trip but both of us made it within about 30 minutes of each other. We all went to dinner at La Hacienda, a super yummy Mexican restaurant in Palatka. Pa...
