95 mile relay from Mount Bonnell to Enchanted Rock. This was pretty intense! It was an overnight relay, and I chose to run the 2am-4am shift, nearly 15 miles through the Texas Hill Country. With only the moon and a headlamp for light, this was a very neat experience which gave a runner the ability to feel safe running down the middle of an old Texas highway in the middle of the night/early morning. The race was a charity event benefiting Batten's Disease, and our team raised over $5,000. Though only 4 team members in this photo, Team Chupik's Cannonball Express had a great crew that consisted of Randy Chupik, Dave Hampton, Michael Rogers, Woody Sitz, Conley Covert, Matt Wayne, and Jim Welch. Though I didn't feel to peachy come Sunday morning, I would recommend to anyone participating in this event in 2012. It was very well organized, especially for a 1st year event.
2011 New Year Resolution
2011 New Year Resolution
After recently watching the movie "Julie and Julia"(forced to watch over Christmas with the family), I was inspired to take on a year challange starting January 2011. My goal is to participate in an endurance race every month during the new calendar year, and blogging about my experience through each event. I have yet to decide all 12 of the events I plan to participate in, but will continue to update informaition about my challenges yet to come. This blog is intended for personal therapeutic purposes, and to encourage others to set their own personal goals.
