Thursday Run and Miscellanous Information
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week went to the dogs! I got nothing done exercise or running wise. I'm enjoying a little work downtime before I start this project next week in Vancouver, British Columbia, but I missed an opportunity in the timing of some e-mails of going and running up at Huntsville State Park on Wednesday with others in the Seven Hills Running Club.
In the early morning exchange of e-mails on Thursday, president Ken Johnson said that he was going to be out and starting to do the 6.7-mile loop at about 3:30 p.m. I met him outside the park, rode in on his Texas State Parks pass and got started shortly thereafter. We had a good run. While we were there, we saw Stan Timmer of Luke's Locker and his wife, Jana, as well as other club members Robert Duncan and Hans Jaegar.
After the run, I stopped in at Luke's in The Woodlands just to make sure everything was covered for Saturday morning and Run The Woodlands 5K #146. Our biggest concern is parking. I have to go by later today, on Friday, and find out how many cars the lot will hold. (This is a good problem to be thinking about!)
I then stopped at Bally's in The Woodlands and nailed an hour on the stationery bike at the random, level 18 setting.
As far as the Houston Running Bloggers RC are concerned, we got our first interested running blogger after the Jerry Smith HARRA e-mail went out today. We're hoping to see our information in the "Affiliated Clubs" area soon once webmaster Geoff Guenther get the opportunity to update it.
Best blog post of yesterday had to belong to one of our newest members (and blogger) Joe Carey. Somehow Joe found me in the listing on the Half2Run.com web site for running half marathons in 10 states and made reference to that; however, the most hilarious comment was as follows: "If this was Jon's blog, there would be all kinds of other data and fun facts about the top runners competing in the half marathon challenge. But it's not Jon's blog so this is all you get." I haven't laughed so hard this early in the morning in quite some time! Thanks Joe!
Coming soon on this blog: An update on the 14 runners signed up for the Rocky Raccoon 100 next weekend that have a chance at capturing the Texas Trilogy.
Next up on the Houston Running Bloggers RC blog will be a pre-Rocky Raccoon 100 interview with one of HRB's own, Dalton Pulsipher, on his quest for his 10th straight RR 100!

There ya go Jon - you could feature a weekly article on the different HRBers. There are some great stories in the group! Or maybe based on your comment about Dalton, that's what you meant to do anyway...
I look forward to your interview w/ Dalton! I had endless questions for him at the pasta party!
