Rugged Maniac Houston

Last weekend was Rugged Maniac Houston, my last race of the year.  It started out partly cloudy and about 60 it ended overcast, windy and about 45 with the windchill, I was having flashbacks to Savage Race Dallas toward the end of the day.  I didn't have to get wet or muddy though so that is always a good thing.  The 3.5 hour drive to get there and get back wasn't the best in the world but I survived.

My first few months in Texas, were eventful, stressful and overall not the best things happened to me or my family.  I am looking forward to a new year and making our new home a better and more positive place; I know that 2014 will be an improvement over 2013 and for that I am grateful.  I would like to thank everyone at Nuvision, Race Pace, and Marathonfoto for letting me hit the ground running after our relocation to East Texas, and I look forward to more in the new year. 

Happy holidays everyone.

Rugged Maniac Dallas

A couple of Saturdays ago was Rugged Maniac Dallas.  I was down and dirty shooting the barbwire crawl (as per usual) and these are some of my favs from the day.  I drove home that afternoon taking a circuitous route out of the "cross timbers" of the Trinity River valley and into the East Texas woods and hills, the trees are on fire and it's good for the soul. 

But I digress,  this weekend is the Savage Race Dallas, no barbwire crawl for me this time, but it's always a good time documenting the memories that people are making when they conquer these OCr's; whether it's just the simple act of finishing, or competing for the best time, I will be there freezing those moments.
