Texas Trail Series, Second Race

This Sunday up in Austin I will be running in the second race of the "Rogue/Vasque Trail Series Trial Run races in Austin, Texas." I participated in the initial race called "The Maze" about a month ago and it was a blast! It lives up to it's name. They have a 10k loop that zigs and zags every which imaginable. Thankfully, the course is extremely well marked and so were the places you shouldn't be going. The second race, aptly called "The Loop" is said to be the hardest in the three race series. I'm looking forward to the challenge on Sunday. My goal at the moment is to finish in under 52 minutes and to have a blast. I plan to camp in the park the night before, if spots are available, and spend the day Saturday up in Austin relaxing, maybe even going for a swim in Barton's Creek. If you're ever in Austin, lookup http://www.roguequipment.com/ for some good equipment and training! They the official host of the race. Also, if you read this in time, sign up for the third race!
