Chevron Houston Half Marathon

The Chevron Houston Half Marathon has come and gone. I was so disappointed to not be able to run and now will never attempt to try to this run again (bad things happen to my feet). However, I did go down there to support my boys Potter (full) and IT (Half). I missed IT's run, but I was able to at least see Potter finish. I tried to see Potter at the 10 minute mile marker, but I guess I missed him pass by in the mob. I was very proud of the guys. I had my friend, Mal (who is Potter's woman) calling me from Grenada to tell me where he was timewise on the run route. At mile 17, he started to hurt really bad with his knees and walked most of it. But in the end, he hobbled to the finish with a time of 5 hours, 41 minutes. Good job guys! I will post pics later. There were some crazy costumes and people out there.

  1. Looking forward to the pictures!
    I'm sorry you didn't get to run it. But perhaps you have saved yourself a lot of pain by not running it? :)
