This is a great way to start your Thanksgiving morning. The Cox Running Club Thanksgiving day run is always organized with very good support. The out-and-back course is scenic along the Trinity River. Any early start leaves plenty of time to finish and enjoy the rest of your day with family and friends.

Packet pickup was a breeze…drove to the Shack at Panther Island, parked walked in a picked it up. Easy.
Race Day Parking: Tons of parking at Panther Island…again, easy.
Starting Line: Things were running a little late…not bad, but 5m or so. A lot of people were confused at the start whether it was the 5k or 10k starting…but if you paid attention is was pretty obvious.
Course: 5k was flat and fast. It was lovely day. Super cold, but great day.
Water Stop: One water stop, not enough volunteers…no one was handing out water. Cups were ready to go though, not bad, it was just obvious they were short on volunteers.
Finish line: The 10k was coming in from one side. The 5k/Half were from the other side and both turned into the final finish shoot. No volunteers here. There really needed to be one, LOTS of people were confused as to where the finish was. After I finished my run I was waiting on friends and saw people blow past the finish…after I saw a couple of people miss the finish I started doing the job myself and pointing people in.
Swag: Tech long sleeve shirt…it’s nice and cozy. Medal was a spinner. <3
