2013 Nueces 50 Mile

Retrospective Race Report

After finishing the Bandera 100k, I did not want to stop running.  So I signed up for the Nueces 50 Miler. This was in Camp Eagle in Rocksprings, where other Tejas Trails Races would later be, including Bandera when weather forced it to move.

I do not remember too much about this race other than seeing the giant cross and hiking through the rocky area that looked like a creek bed which I called "The Trash." 

Here is a photo from the internet of that year's race:


When I finished, I was a bit incoherent and Joe said, "I think you need to sit down!" with a smile. 

The time was 11 minutes faster than the previous year's Cactus Rose, but on slightly tougher terrain.  So this shows I was still strong.
