Texas Independence Relay Info

The Texas Independence Relay is composed of 40 relay legs of various lengths, totaling over 200 miles. The course starts in Gonzales, TX, where the Texas Revolution began, and it finishes at the San Jacinto Monument, where Texas Independence was won!

The relay will run from March 7th - 8th.

8 original Waiting for Runs Relay members will be returning (we will miss abelisle, the Foos, & Mystery runner)

This time, we will up the challenge and have 9 runners in a luxurious 15 passenger van. This means no resting time for the 2nd van.

Keep an eye out here for updated info and up to the minute updates.

What did I forget?

Well, I'm sitting here at gate A29 waiting to board. The "fun" part of flying is that feeling of "What did I forget". It ranges from, oops, I forgot to pack something, to did I unplug that or is the dog ok (and I don't even have a dog). The feeling is 2X the "fun" when you are traveling for a relay. You have twice the bags to pack.

So, I had that feeling, and low and behold, I forgot my camera synching cable. I am so use to popping the SD cards into my computer at home that I spaced the cable. My laptop doesn't have any SD card ports, so, I will need to acquire a SD card port. So, Theresa suggested to me that if I happen to forget anything, that I should just buy it when I land. SSAAAWWEEET, hmm, wonder if I forgot anything else...

The GNIKE GNOME is traveling 5th class, so he will probably be grumpy on arrival. He wanted first class, but I tried to reason with him that gnomes aren't allowed on commercial flights. Oh well, see everyone soon!
