| HARRA Race - Sunday, October 26th | | |
| You will have a whole day to recuperate from Lisa's party and be ready to run the Houston Half Marathon or 10K!
It's a HARRA Race, so we will have the tent there, but more
importantly, there will be an awesome post race party at the home of Sue and Paul Schulz (details below). (The 10k is full, but you can still sign up for the half - use code HARRA for 10% off race registration) | | |

BCRR Half Marathon Post Race Party
Where: Paul & Sue Schulz's house (check your weekly email or email houstonbcrr@gmail for address) When: Sunday, Oct 26th ~11AM Who: Party is open to all BCRR members. You need not have run the half marathon to partake (although you may be mocked by those who do 😉). Details from Paul: - Sorry, we don't really cook, but we got a better option: we got the same caterers as last year!
- Also, we will have lots of drinks: coffee, water, beer, wine, mimosas, and sinful hard liquor.
- We have a pool and hot tub and we'll heat them if it is cooler outside. We'll have many towels, too.
- We'll
start around 11 AM so folks have time to shower, etc., after the race.
But we have showers, towels, etc., so feel free to come before or after
11 AM.
- Run fast and come over afterwards!
- If convenient, please rsvp to pschulz100@gmail.com.
