Today was the third largest turnout in Run The Woodlands' eight-year history. The previous highs are as follows:

394 - Run The Woodlands 5K #165, November 11, 2006 - "The Hans Race"
175 - Run The Woodlands 5K #159, August 12, 2006 - "Seven Hills beats HRB"
136 - Run The Woodlands 5K #179, June 9, 2007 - "TWRC defeats Seven Hills"
127 - Run The Woodlands 5K #146, January 28, 2006 - "Team In Training Competition"

Of course, the "Hans Race" had many walkers that pushed the overall attendance in the neighborhood of 600.

What's interesting is that Bill and I have had the opportunity to directly have our hands in the other three races that cracked the 100 finishers barrier! We've been very fortunate to be blessed with a lot of friends that love the sport. :)
