Extreme Veteran 527 Round Rock, Texas | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon I'm 50/50 about coming up for this race. Does anyone have any opinions about the race, the organization, the course, etc? I used to live in Ft. Worth so I am some what familiar with the area. |

| Plano, Tx | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon Compared to big races like Austin and Dallas this race is fairly small... but well worth it. Overall its a tough course but the organization and post race is great. It still has that small race feel... the fact that you can register on race day is amazing. Did I mention the post race all you can drink free beer???

Expert 853 Fort Worth, Texas | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon I am doing the full marathon and last year did the half. I have done the 10k many, many times and have always had good experiences with the race, the post race activities and the support. I hear that the full course is much hillier than White Rock which is the only other marathon I have run. I have been training lots in the area where the course is being run, so hopefully the hills will be OK. Anyone else doing the full marathon? |

Master 2381 Frisco, Texas | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon I'm doing the half. I'm treating it as a training run, so I'll run it at my IM pace. Not trying to PR. It's probably too hilly for a PR anyway. I ready. It should be fun. TJ |

Master 1292 McKinney, TX | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon We're in for the marathon. I decided to do the full and run it with Shannon to get her to the finish line. Going to take a picture of her every mile marker. Haven't decided yet on whether or not I will carry a megaphone with me. If you hear the following, it's me... "26.1 miles to go!" "26 miles to go!" "25.9 miles to go!" |

Extreme Veteran 333 | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon I'm in for the half as well! After last weekend's not so great asthma-riddled performance at the Texas Half, my coach has given me the okay for a shot at redemption. The hills will be a good training run and practice for Buffalo Springs!  |

Extreme Veteran 527 Round Rock, Texas | Subject: RE: The Cowtown - Half Marathon I'm coming in but not till later on Friday, with the family. Is there a meeting place on race morning or post race? I think we plan on staying till Sunday if anyone is up for a 3.5 hour ride on Sunday. My brother lives near TCU, so the Radio Shack route sounds good. |

Mike, Marcy and I have a 5hr/1hr brick on Sunday.....yeah its sounds fun to us too, after a 1/2marathon....We will be riding on the Trinity trails, and we do leave from Radio Shack. We are a decent amount slower than you, but we'll be out there. |
