10 for Texas Postponed until November 15th

The latest word on The Woodlands 10 mile race is that it has been postponed until I recover from the Chicago marathon because I really wanted to run it. Well that and Hurricane Ike has made the originally scheduled date of October 18th unsafe due to debris still in the area and large vehicles moving in the area clearing said debris.

But in any event it looks like I will be able to get my first 10 for Texas race in this year. I passed on running the 2006 race as I had my last long run that weekend before the New York City marathon. I was out of town running back to back half marathons in Baltimore and Atlantic City the weekend of last years race. Unfortunately alot of people planning on running the race on October 18th will be running either the full or half marathon of Elite Racing's inaugural Rock n Roll San Antonio on the rescheduled weekend.

I got in 6 miles yesterday during lunch. I hadn't run from work during lunch since I got shingles back in July. What a difference a couple of months makes in the weather. It was awesome running weather yesterday.
