5 Peaks Weaselhead Flats Sept 28, 2024

This is our third 5 Peaks race this year and also the last one in the series.  Once again the blue sky is on tap but it is quite chilly early in the morning.  We are just back from LA and I'm wondering why I signed us up for this.  I am a tired person.

The fall colours are beautiful.  This race is in the very west portion of Fish Creek in Calgary so the bonus is a short drive.  

We cross a small bridge over a river I can't find the name of (possibly Fish Creek?) It looks absolutely beautiful for kayaking.  My body is trying to enter it's fall potato era so I walk most of this one.  I hate doing that.

Kev did really well, he flew past me fairly early on.  His shirt is awesome, it came in a mystery bag from InknBurn.

I will never be sad to see a finish line.  

I love the optional race medals, you can order them when you sign up.  We share one.  I am unashamedly delighted with cool race medals.

It's been a wonderful year of 5 Peaks races, stress free and enjoyable.  Great snacks.  Sunshine.  This year I have run the Calgary Half and 3 x 5 Peaks, I'm very happy with that as a return to racing.
