Houston Running

One of the leading sources for the discussion of Houston-area (and Texas as well) road racing. Focus and attention will be given to Houston-area runners, specifically HARRA members, that compete in outside-of-the-area events as well as those who do interesting things that aren't captured in the various media outlets, such as Inside Texas Running, Runner Triathlete News and Roberta MacInnis' Running Notebook in the Houston Chronicle (all fine publications and columns but with limitations too).

About Me

Name:
Location: Spring, Texas, United States

I'm a mid-to-the back of the pack runner who probably enjoys promoting runners more than I do running myself ... I've completed 21 marathons (with a 4:47:32 PR! in Austin) and 52 half marathons (with a 2:09:58 PR! in Oregon) since November 2003 ... I've done a marathon in 12 states, half marathon in 23 and an event in 30 states and one Canadian province ... I have a 13-year-old daughter, Waverly Nicole, who completed her first half marathon in January 2006, made only two B's each of the last two years, was the only sixth grader to sing a solo (Carrie Underwood's Don't Forget To Remember Me) in their choir program (adding Taylor Swift's Tim McGraw in '08) and scored a 19 on the ACT in December 2007 as a seventh grader ... Waverly and I are members of the following clubs -- the Seven Hills Running Club, HARRA and The Woodlands Running Club ... I'm Marathon Maniac #308 ... I edit HARRA's Footprints in Inside Texas Running and write a column for Runner Triathlete News called, "Talking the Talk" ... I'm also the running columnist for the Courier of Montgomery County ... I'm a three-time winner of TAPPS' Sportswriter of the Year Award as well as TABC's Golden Hoops Award.

TIR Time Trials at Run The Woodlands 5K Saturday

Pretty soon, Texas Independence Relay team captains will be asked to turn in their team's rosters as well as their predicted finishing time (which will dictate what time each team will start in Gonazles.)

So, Bill and I will be inviting all of The Woodlands-area teams and their captains to come out to Run The Woodlands 5K for a time trial to allow runners to be able to give their respective captains an accurate reflection of what their predicted 10K pace really is right now.

If you can make it out to The Woodlands on Saturday, it'll be great to have you there or otherwise, there are a host of good races throughout the greater Houston area this weekend -- including two good 10K's - one in Angleton and another in Galveston.

You can read more about these races at this entry on our RunHouston Chronicle blog.
