Runners for LIFE

Today we ran the Texas Shaped Loop, a 11 mile Social Run organized by David Walker. What a magic moment with friends and other runners, beautiful Morning, colorful path, great weather, an effort worth the while.
Great prep for upcoming races!! Thank you Runners for LIFE David, Pao, Robert and IRC for your Team work and support!! What a special time we had!!

We have been "heat conditioning" for weeks now. Trying to be prepared for the Hot Trot 10k (6.2 miles) in Dallas this weekend. Some of our friends are running the half marathon (13.1 miles/21k).

Best of luck to all of is and all our friends and the runners we have yet to befriend.

It's not that we haven't tried to be prepared but this summer has been brutal! Some days the temperature has been as high as 108°F (42.2°C) but typically with very low humidity.
I think I remember one evening was hot and humid and resulted in a 113°F (45°C) "feels like" temperature.
We shall see what happens in the morning!

David finally broke the 8 minute pace for 5k. It's been a year (well, tomorrow is a year) since the ankle injury.
7:43 pace for a 23:59 5k finish!
Thank you series for an amazing race!
See you in 2 weeks at 5k-9!

David bought a new over-the-door organizer to better access his shoes.
I think that now David realizes that he may have a problem...or a brand, at the very least!

We had a great time Saturday at the 10k.
Camilo ran his second 10k and improved by 2 min +.
Paola blasted her way to the finish line to win 1st in Women's Masters (40+ ages)
David managed a 2nd place in his division.
Marisol got to take a selfie with The Amazing Spider-man!
(Then she included all of us in the shot)

One week until the last summer race for us, the 10K. Next month is busy for David starting on the 8th with a Katy 5k. Joining him are several members of the and lots of coworkers from Stantec (or excoworkers but still friends of David).
After that is the anniversary run for Runners for Life at the Freedom Run 5k in Trinity Groves, Dallas. That is where Camilo, Paola and Marisol recognized David from Arbor Hills training in Plano and we all became friends.
4 more runs include the 5k, the 10k, and the half marathon (13.1 miles).
Maybe I can get some friends to join me?
