Houston Half Warm-up!

Hi from Houston Texas, I'm visiting my hubby for a week, which will end with the Half marathon next sunday. Lovely weather, sunny skies and with a breeze - it's a lot nicer than my visit in June!
The first weekend started with an hour's run near the Buffalo Bayou quite close to the city, a new track as well as new bridge construction in progress.

Is that what gets an engineer's wife, (and daughter) excited?

Rewarded ourselves with breakfast at Harry's, usually its a Migas for me, but this morning I chose fried catfish, scrambled eggs, grits and biscuit. apparently grits have very low nutritional value but its as good as oats/polenta in filling one's stomach!

Sunday evening, we gave Hermann Park a second go (there was a fun run/walk there on saturday so wasnt easy to get close!) There was a concert happening and we ran around th golf course - around 2miles in the sunset?

Seng's using his VibramFiveFingers, which I have been banned from trying (from my podiatrist)- it makes a louder noise on impact than he normally does..hehe

Sunset at Hermann Park, a lovely finish to the week!
