Race Recap - Cowtown

Hello, Internet! Hope all is well with you. Once again I am sorry for our general lack of blogging. I bet you thought we "ran" away (pun intended).  Hopefully YouTube has been keeping you entertained with cat videos while we were away.

Since we last talked I got to run the Cowtown 10k in Fort Worth, Texas. I had planned to do the half, but thought it would be way more fun to run with a friend who was doing her first 10k. It was a great race, a little chilly, but not too miserable. Fort Worth is such a great place to run and the Cowtown never lets me down. Expo location is great, and there is plenty of space on the race course.

For our race day fashion we wore shirts that said "Keep Calm and More Cowbell." Because let's face it, we all need more Will Ferrell in our lives, and everything can use more cowbell!  To complete the ensemble, we wore bows with cows on them (don't ask why I had foam cows #ConfessionsOfaSpeechPathologist). Pictures of our race fun are below. For those of you who are not SNL junkies. Here is the link to the SNL more cowbell skit CLICK HERE FOR MORE COWBELL

I am super excited because Caroline and I will run together soon at the Nike Women's Half Marathon in Washington, DC. I have no idea what our race-wear will be, but Caroline left me a Facebook post saying race outfits were "a go" and that I would just have to be surprised when I arrived. So we will all just have to be left in suspense until the race day. I am sure the race outfits will rock, and extra-sure that getting a Tiffany's necklace at the finish will also rock!
Race Shirt!

Cow bows!






Race buddies. Congrats to Leslie on finishing her first race!
