Run Through The Vines
Thomas decided last week that he wanted to run in the annual TAMU Roadrunners race, “Run Through the Vines” at Messina Hof this weekend. There is a 5K and a 10K, and it’s a beautiful course through and around the vineyard and along the country roads surrounding it. I had an interesting experience with the 10K a few years ago, but the place holds fond memories for both of us.
Anyway, Thomas hasn’t been running really regularly lately, nor has he run five kilometers at one time since last summer back when we were running together. However, he ran amazingly this morning and beat his goal by twenty seconds! And he was fourth in his age-division. Way to go, Sweetie!
Sorry for the gushing, but I’m so proud of him and amazed at his cardiovascular health.
I made Josiah a sign to hold so he would have a job to do. He enjoyed it, and so did all the runners who ran by him. He liked digging in the dirt better, so he did that more than anything.
Aren’t they the cutest?
Way to go Thomas! And the weather was amazing wasn’t it!!! Now I’m curious what your interesting experience was there last year??? Were you sampling the grapes as you were running??? :)
That’s Awesome! Thomas, You are a fine specimen of a man.
We should Indian Leg-Wrestle.
Wow! That is seriously remarkable. I can’t believe that. I’ve been trying to get back into shape enough to run for 1 minute straight. Pathetic, considering I was a former athlete.
Inspiring!
