March 26th Houston Running Bloggers RC Club Meeting
Sunday evening, I took Waverly with me to Memorial Park and Beck's Prime Restaraunt for the first-ever Houston Running Bloggers RC group run and club meeting.
We had eight (8) of us run and another six (6) members join in for the presentation by Tom and Mary Anne McBrayer regarding course certification. Beck's Prime was a little loud, without reserving the room and paying a fee; however, I think everyone learned a bit from Tom as far as how to read a course certification map and most importantly, how to run a certified course.
Our next meeting will be on Sunday evening, April 23rd and a time and a place will be announced as soon as possible. We'd love to have you come join us and hang out with us. We'll also be identifying another speaker as soon as possible.
I ran a 2.9-mile loop in 28:58.18 with Holden Choi and Joe Carey. (They slowed down a little bit for me, but I was carrying on a conversation the entire way.) James David Dykas and Keith Kelleher were a little bit ahead of us. David's wife, Jaclyn, started just a little bit before us. Edwin Quarles and Jessica Alexander ended up doing four (4) loops while Holden had gotten in a loop before we got there.
We talked about our Runner of the Month process as well of a couple of things we wanted to get accomplished in 2006. Everyone got to meet Jan Poscovsky for the first time, which was a pleasure for all of us. (I'd still like to get over 20 again like we did for the pasta party.)
I feel really great about the dynamics of our club that we have and while we missed a number of members who weren't able to be there, we still had a great time and will look forward to continuing to celebrate our collective successes in the sport.
