4. we thought about it. it is in austin, pretty far from here. next week we are off to NO
via southern texas for thanksgiving week. i have never been down there. and hubby couldnt get off work. so we decided not to go.

as you know with cross country. 16 minutes and you see very little of the race, lol.

5. That is a long way to go for a quick race!
Those 16 minutes are exciting though! Too bad it's not being held closer to where you live. Please let him know that your DU friends are pulling for him and his teammates, and let us know how they do. :-)
