George Gets Ready
We have arrived at Destiny Dallas RV Resort about 30 miles northwest of Dallas. Our original plan was to spend a month here doing doctors and seeing friends. But some extra dental work has caused a change of plan and we now expect to be here until after Christmas.
We had a good time today at White Rock Lake where we joined four friends for the Dallas Running Club Half Marathon and 5K races. Our friends, from my days at The Academy, are George and Lisa Karr and Eric and Katie Creeger. They, along with Sue, were entered in the 5K. I ran the half.
It was a nice cool morning, we all got there on time, and I headed out first with about 3000 other runners. Two hours and twenty minutes later, when I returned, I found the 5Kers well rested and Sue accepting here trophy for third place in her age group. The half was a nice run that began by rolling through some hills in the neighborhood near White Rock Lake and then heading back to the lake around the south end and back northward along the west shore back to the start.
We have settled in at our campsite for the long stay.
