Running for Wine
December 20, 2009
My friend Chris and I participated in the Spicewood Vineyards 10k the weekend of December 5th. The 26 degree starting temp, ice crystals and frozen low water crossings just couldn’t keep us away from the free wine awaiting us upon completion of the race! The cold was a stark change from the hot and humid running weather we have been having in San Antonio and I actually enjoyed the cooler temps. Of course, the best part of race was finishing the hilly course and running straight to the bar for our free wine (and free wine glass etched with the race logo – how cool!). The boys were troopers and waited out our return at the finish line and then enjoyed drinking with us. This was one of the funnest races I’ve ever done in the SA/Austin area (mostly due to the goodie bag and free wine) and I look forward to participating in it in years to come.
