Ouch! October 13-14: Busy Weekend!
Saturday, October 13
+ Huntsville Half Marathon
+ Ten For Texas, The Woodlands ... not exactly!
Sunday, October 14
+ Tri Andy's Tri, Sugar Land
+ United Space Alliance 10 Miler, Clear Lake
Choices! Choices!
The rule of thumb is that no sooner you post something, you'll find out that it is wrong! Technically, the Ten For Texas date hasn't yet been officially announced. It is just that last year, it was the week after the Nike South Cross Country Invitational, which is hosted by The Woodlands HS.
In the July edition of the Houston Masters Sports Association newsletter, comes this note: "10 For Texas is also searching, but for another date. With HARRA's USA 10, the next day, both events suffer. To complicate the situation, Sunday runs just don't work in The Woodlands -- so many churches."
Actually, the USA 10-Miler had a slight increase in the number of runners and Ten For Texas had all new runners "so to speak" and there were very few runners - less than 10, I believe - who had abandoned the 10-Miler for Ten For Texas.
So if this turns out to be the case, it is really a big benefit for the Huntsville Half Marathon, which is put on by the Seven Hills Running Club and will feature chip timing for the first time ever.
