• Comments: Great race and great volunteers. There were over 17,000 runners, so it takes a great organization to pull this off. Overall, it was a great experience.

• Comments: This was my first organized stateside race (in other words, not Army run in Iraq) since I did a 1-miler when I was in the 4th grade (and couldn't run to save my life--just wanted extra credit) and it went so smoothly in every aspect. I thought it was great, fun, lots of support, perfect weather, good course, and truly a smooth race. This was a GREAT morale booster, huge PR, and if I am in Houston this time next year or my folks are still here, I may have to run it again!
