Schedule Change for the 4th!
Well, I had the Freedom 5K in Sugar Land originally on my racing schedule for next weekend; however, I think I am going to go north, join my friends in the Seven Hills Running Club and run Stu's Country Mile (5K) in downtown Centerville.
7Hills president Ken Johnson wrote, "We usually have about 12-15 club members at the Stu's Country Mile in Centerville. We traditionally all meet at the Town Cafe, just off the square, for a country breakfast after the race. There is no advance registration and to the best of my memory, the entry fee is $10 (T-shirt included). I drove the course one time and it appears to be about 100 yards long. It starts and finishes on the downtown square in the middle of the 4th of July festival. There is also a parade about an hour after the race is over."
I'll probably get excommunicated from the Houston Striders, who a lot of ran the Freedom 5K last summer (I'm teasing, Steve!); however, I like doing things a little different (plus it might be an interesting race report for Stridelines!)
If any of you know anything about the Straightway Family 5K Fun Run in Wharton on Saturday, July 2nd, please let me know. I've e-mailed the organizer, but haven't got any response as of yet.

Hi Jon,
The Centerville race sounds like a great one, in fact, I am certainly interested as I won't be too far from there on that day...(let's just see if I can get up an hour early to make it out for that one!) I do have definete plans to do the Lampasas 10K that is the 9th and possibly the Lunar Race the 16th as it's my birthday...we'll see!
Happy training to you!
Jessica, a Houston Runner
Jessica,
It would be great to meet you in Centerville. I think that the race is a fairly low-key affair. Many of the folks in the 7 Hills Running Club placed in the top 3 in their age group last year. I'd like to go do the Lampasas 10K as a couple of Striders are going over to do it, but I have RTW responsibilities. --Jon
I think I may be joining Striders soon and doing SMART lite, I will keep you posted...
Jessica
are you serious?
