Bill
Thompson's Running RecordsI began running 2 or 3 times a week, and have
since
participated in a number of races, mainly 5K's.
Recently,
I have attempted some 5 Mile runs and 10K's.
Many of these races raise money that benefit worthy causes. I
have been encouraged by a gradual improvement in my times.
I highly recommend running as a great way of
staying
motivated, improving your health, and having fun!

Bayou City Classic Weather started out cold and windy but warmed up nicely. My time would have been better, but respiratory illness wreaked havoc with my training schedule in the last 2 weeks. Check out the photos of my "Six Flags of Texas" outfit! The T-shirt is my original design! |
