I'm tentatively planning to run the marathon...depends on whether I feel ready to do Cowtown. I definitely will participate however to some degree and want to meet all the RR folks that are participating.

I'm sorry guys, but it is becoming a smaller possibility now. I'm not sure I can afford the gas or the mileage on my truck.

I'll make the final determination by the end of January.

Okay Katt you convinced me. I'm doing the full Cowtown. It will be my first marathon since 2001 and I am only going to be able to get one 20 miler in before the race but I've always wanted to do Cowtown. As far as the Texas Marathon, I'll either hook up for a relay leg or run the 5K.

Yeah Katt and when I'm in the med tent at the end on oxygen with IVs sticking in me...it will be your fault Hee Hee What are you doing about the packet pickup? Race day or before? I guess I'm registering online.

I can vouch that the medical tent at Cowtown is awesome.....actually the best I ever had!!!!! I walked out saying "hey, I think I'll ask for IV fluids next time"......of course I could have down without the core temperature check...thank you very much---not!!!
