Race preview: Big D 30K

WHERE ARE WE GOING?
Dallas

WHEN?
Sunday, Nov. 18


WHY?
Big D 30K

NO REALLY, WHY?
This will be a nice supported long run as I get within 8 weeks of the Houston Marathon.


WHO ELSE IS GOING?
Coming 3 weeks before the Dallas Marathon, you would think this race might get some more interest as the last tune-up for some folks, but no, there won't be many more than 50 or 60 runners on hand.

WHAT'S THE FORECAST?
The forecast looks good; it will really be great if the sun stays behind clouds. We should start in the low 50s and finish around 60 degrees, maybe less if it stays cloudy.

HOW DO WE WIN?

Much like last weekend, the field is small enough that an age group award is really not in question. I'd like to be under 2:14, with a stretch goal under 2:11.
