I miss the Bun Run. Great shirts back in the early 90's.

Still have one that lasted. Wear it once in a while and get a funny look up here in the big city

This will be my first Bun Run. I'm hoping to break 23 minutes. My real concern is the 8 a.m. start time/hangover combination.

not a bad route. not sure if i agree with the "grueling" part though. i think we're talking 50 feet over the first mile?

Good run this morning. Did it in 23:37. I didn't meet my goal mostly because I underestimated the effect of slow traffic. I've still never understood why people with dogs and 80 year old women that are going to "speed" walk the course push their way to the front, but it's a real pain. For comparison, I did the first mile in 8:04 and the second two in 14:45.

The start was a little uphill, but in no way grueling.

The Beef Council was there giving out hamburgers to runners, so I had a nice post race breakfast burger.

Looking forward to the Sober Run (to support UT Student Recovery Services) next week followed by a 11 a.m. trip to Crown & Anchor.
