Meagan Shares TCU

Time: 103:20
Distance: ~14 miles

The run started with 20 minutes of running into the wind. It sucked. It brought back memories of running in Oklahoma. When it's expected or something you experience run after run, you're prepared for the breeze and learn how to run with it. I haven't run in 20 mph winds in ages and it took some time to get comfortable with the constant opposing force. It was also hot. Meagan and I didn't start until 10:30 or so and it was already in the 70s by the time we started. There was very little shade too. Them the breaks.

Meagan took me to a neighborhood bike path and then to the TCU campus. We had a good look around and she showed me some of the spots where she made out with random dudes. The buildings were all really nice and recently redone. However, there weren't many students around. Granted it was a Sunday morning the week before Thanksgiving, but still. It would have been cool to be near campus on a weekend that the best football team in Texas was playing. It's weird typing that TCU is without a doubt the best college football team in Texas.

After the pass through campus we headed back out onto the Trinity River Trail where we proceeded to do some pickups. The run took a turn for the worse around 75 minutes when Meagan started to sound terrible. I pulled the plug, we grabbed some water and then headed back in the direction of our temporary residence. I picked it up the final 20 minutes and ran hard back to the hotel motel.
