Possible G2G - July 11 - Anyone interested?

Ben from Ben Does Life will be coming to Dallas on his Do Life tour July 11th. Sara and I had talked about meeting up there and Stephie expressed interest, so I wanted to know if anyone else would be interested enough to make it a mini-G2G.

Monday, July 11th ? 6:30 p.m.
Katy Trail
Meet at parking lot at Reverchaon Park (In the Oaklawn area for reference)

There will be a fun run type 5k - no timing chips or entry fees, just a social run/jog/walk followed by dinner and hanging out at a place nearby.

I will be driving over an hour and I want to meet/see you all! We can run/walk/jog/skip/hop whatever, just come!

Ben's story and blog are really inspiring and this video made me cry and made me want to kill it on my runs to become a BAMF.

Check out his blog for details of how the previous tour stops have gone to get an idea of what it will be like.

  • I can't. But y'all have fun.

  • Stephie-  Just wanted to share with you that if I make it out to the Tour, I will more than likely walk the 5K.  I haven't run in a long while and with the heat, I probably won't take any chances so you wouldn't be alone if you chose to walk.
  • Well since I will literally be right next door, yes for me.  I will do my best to keep up.  Knowing I will be able to eat an air-conditioned dinner afterwards will spur me on!

     I will ask to work 9-6 this day.

  • Sounds fun ladies, but it is too far away from me for a Monday.

    Have fun!

    I am with you guys on walking. It's going to be too hot just to go running amok. :P

  • Oh man, I wanna do a 5k but I am 99.9% sure this will be the day after Edward gets home and I will be preoccupied if that's the case.

    I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

  • I would like to go but I have really bad anxiety about traffic so I would love to head down prior to rush hour traffic, would anyone be able to meet and just hang out for a little while before (maybe starbucks or somewhere similar)?

    I am going to need to come early to avoid traffic, so let me know and I will meet you ahead of time.

    So, this morning I was randomly up earlier than normal (by like, a lot). So I started reading Ben's blog from the beginning, and it totally motivated me to go to the gym! So, I might be interested in going to this, and I might even meet up early. But I will warn you now, I'm a real baby about the heat, and will definitely not be running amok. :)
