Our team has 11 runners at the moment. The 12th spot is being held for Dirt Runner himself. He keeps telling me that he is not going to do the relay because he’s concentrating on ultras. I’m keeping the spot open for him for a little while longer but at some point I’ll have to fill it in with someone (equal to blogger speed).
I was talking with one of the Luke’s coaches Cathy Steele and suggested that there might be a spot. She say’s, “I’m already on a team”. My good friend and also a Luke’s coach Debbie Tripp has been hard at work recruiting a woman’s team for the relay. I think I remember Cathy also telling me that they have a pretty fast team and that they will finish in front of us. Hmmmmmm.
So here is this weeks update.
The TIR Handbook has been posted on the event website.
Texian Road Warriors – at 11 members and holding for Dirt Runner
Bloggers - are quiet. Jon doesn’t say much. I know Dave Smart is planning like crazy…. (I am too)

Gary Van Kuiken’s team – no update – I’m sure they will be very fast
Rumbles
WoodlandsFit – rumor that there will be a couple teams

It's 9 months away! What is there to plan for right now? All you gotta do is run... :)
Planning the logistics only - possible hotel, vehicles,leg lengths, what part is in darkness what part will be daylight, emergency plan, and what rock-n-roll music to play when Jon is running to bug the heck out of him. We'll decide run order and finalize in January.
Just fill it now, I'll be resting before a big race later that month out of town.
Road Warriors plan. Bloggers do.
"equal to blogger speed"= faster than a speeding bullet
Super secret double probation planning...
