I enjoyed my free beer in the biergarten which was placed right by the finish, so we could watch the rest of the finishers while we hung out and enjoyed the day. They race provided some delicious free food that included burritos and donuts from local food trucks.

I ran as well as I could have hoped, finishing in 1:27:59 (avg. under 6:45 per mile). I won my age group and brought home a bag of locally roasted Sweetwater coffee as the prize.


The Five Points of Life Half Marathon took place on February 16, 2020. Race results are available at:

I didn't find any photos of me racing, but I did take a photo of the lake before the start.

I am really happy with my race. I finished about a minute faster than my stretch goal, with a time of 1:02:01 (or 6:40 per mile).
The shirt this year was great -- tech fabric with long-sleeves:

Life isn't getting any easier in the Masters division around here. Four guys over 40 were ahead of me.
The event was held on January 25, 2020. Race results are posted here:

On my first day I received a laptop and my team suggested that I install Linux.

It is nice to be using Linux again full-time.
We are using GitOps practices with Flux and Kubernetes.
Nothing else much to report yet. I had some time to fiddle with my shell environment. zsh seems to be the popular shell these days so I played with it a little bit but instead decided to stick with Bash. I found a project similar to oh-my-zsh called oh-my-bash which I am using to customize my shell prompt.

Over the past few years I have developed a taste for Sours and Goses, and Pretoria Fields did not disappoint.

They have large indoor and outdoor seating areas and the building is in a nice historic brick building by the river.


Dog Friendly and delicious beers. Everything we tried was delicious.
If you are passing near Albany, GA, it is worth the visit.
Pretoria Fields makes some of their beers available for take-home in bottles or cans.
