Go Run Texas 325

Texas has 254 counties. That’s the most of any US state, by a lot.

There are a handful of people who have run in every county of Texas. Those folks are members of the Texas 254 Running Club.

This past week, on Friday the 13th, Willie Lindsey became the 7th person to join that club. On that day, several dedicated runners gathered in Saint Augustine TX, to help Willie finish his 254th. This is a big deal, folks!

The runners were fun, the weather was perfect and breakfast was delicious.

Exploring More of East Texas:

Tomorrow, a Texas 254 Club member is going to finish his last county. That’s the reason for this trip. It’s a big damn deal!

But today, I had a chance to explore Shelby County and Shelbyville, TX again.
My number 3 baby’s name is Shelby. She’s super cool.
I HAVE to stop here, in her honor, anytime I’m nearby.

Well folks, I need some help here.
For this trip, there were two races on the island of Kauai.

The first race was held on the grounds of the Smith Family Luau.
The second race was held at Kapa’a Beach park on the Pacific coast. I’m having some trouble deciding which one was more torturous.

Here are three pictures from each.
Why don’t you guys let me know which of these horrible places was more demanding and arduous?
