FEBRUARY 18
Race day came early (dark, cold, early!) and yet our spirits were excited and alert. There is nothing like a crowd of runners up at the crack of dawn, chipper and chatty about the task ahead. I took my ritual picture with the local law enforcement, watched the early morning fireworks and off we went!

We had a blast, singing, taking in the Austin sights and of course receiving our medals at the finish line. Best part is the hot bath waiting at Janis’ home and the stack of pancakes I devoured for post-race breakfast!
