On Wednesday night, I was able to make it to the Houston Striders information/planning meeting for the RRCA National Convention that we are hosting at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in March 2006. Check out the press release if you haven't already.
We met at Cafe Express which by the way I have never been to. I did not order any food but let me say that the food looked awesome. I really want to go back there and eat. All kinds of salads, pasta, chicken, very fresh. It all looked scrumptious. I haven't been to be involved with the Striders for many months so it was good to some old familiar faces.Steve Shepard, Barb Shepard, Doug Spence, Brett Riley are heading up our effort and getting everything planned. There are already a lot of things in motion. There are going to be some great speakers at the Convention. Also, the whole thing is the same weekend as the HEB Bayou City Classic 10K so it promised to be an event-filled week.
I'm very proud to be a member of Houston Striders. It's a great club and offers me, as a runner, a lot of support. The club also does so much for the Houston running community. I'M PROUD TO BE A STRIDER!!!

Vic-
I too feel the same way about the convention-can't wait!!!!! :)
And, yes we are both setting ourselvess up to be successful in the upcoming year and a half! Don’t worry about being behind though, your ankle WILL heal up and pretty soon you will be running circles around ME! I was at the planning meeting, saw that you were there but ended up getting sidetracked talking to Lee and Steve and Noah. I can’t wait to get things going for the convention! Anyhow, I will see you around as well and if you ever need to contact me, the best way is stdjma14ATshsu.edu.
Take care!
