The 9th Running of the Cows


It's hard to believe that we have run the Cowtown 5K 9 times in a row. That's nine years of commitment to the same event. I haven't done anything like that since my friends and I use to go to Ciudad Acuña every New Years during and after College.

I was definitely slower than last year with a 32:35 vs. a 29:40. My time off from working out and my extra 15 pounds really showed in the first half mile. My legs were killing me from just below my calf to the middle of my foot. We won't discuss my need for a ventilator because the entire mass of humanity could hear me wheezing and gasping for air.

Special thanks to Michala for sticking with my slow pace and keeping me company.

Alaina had her personal best time! I am so proud of her for sticking with crossfit even when I didn't.
