My friend Tracy invited me to go with her to Texas so I could attend her Nephew's wedding with her. I told her it would be really great to find an awesome race to do in Texas while we were there, and that way we could have a finishing medal from a new state! We found this race

I was impressed by the finishing medal and after talking about the race together we both signed up at the same time while talking on the phone.
We arrived in Texas on Thursday, April 12th and the first place we drove to was

The weather ended up being a perfect 70 degrees, little windy, with some rain sprinkles around mile 2-3 which felt amazing. The ten miles flew by and I finished with a time of 1:56:35 which was great because I wanted to finish under 2 hours. Here are results in my age group if you want to view them:
Women 35-39 results. Here are pictures to enjoy!
