Bellaire Trolley Run 5K
Well, Waverly and I were going to run this together this morning.
But as we were leaving Spring and turned on to Interstate 45 to head south, a line of thunderstorms blew through that put driving at serious jeopardy for a time.
Instead of taking a chance at things, especially as we watched transformer after transformer blow along the freeway from lightning strikes, I decided to turn it back around and head to the house.
Best wishes to those who didn't have similar conditions to get through and were able to make it there safely and compete - regardless of the weather.

I heard there were some pretty treacherous conditions north of you too at hog's hunt. Glad I stayed close to home!
I like to see a safe father. You lead by example. Matt W.....
The most treacherous part of Saturday was my drive to the race, during the absolute worst of it, I feel certain. All the cars on the Pearce elevated slowed to about 30 mph - it was great to see driver being so considerate of one another for a change - we were all terrified.
It poured all during the race, but by 8am the lightning had moved west of us, so we ran.
The weather was definitely not for kids, though.
