[Magnitude 6.8 earthquake hit Nagano, Japan]
Woke up at 4:00am, stretched my body and took shower, leaving at 5:00am
towards Shiner, TX. The road had very little traffic, dark and somewhat
foggy so I had to be careful while I drive. Made a stop at a gas stop, then
continue drive on the road. I saw several oil rigs and that made me feel
that I am outside of Houston. Arrived at the brewery for packet pickup. A
few showers before the race but it started on time. The first part was
running in the town which is already hilly then headed outside the town
toward the north. There were a few traffic but all seems to be oil rig
related. A part of the route was not paved, on top of the muddy condition,
it made my shoes heavy and more burden on my legs. I hoped to break 2:00
mark but came in 30 seconds later. Ate two hotdogs after the race. I was
hoping that I can get free beer but the lines were so long. I decided to
take a tour and left around noon. Drove to Gozales under moderate rain. When
I stopped by at the memorial, a rain momentally stopped for the picture. I
then drove to the museum to check out the canon before heading back to
Houston. I left there around 1:30pm, and arrived home by 3:30pm. Took shower
and get refreshed. Drove to a barber to get my haircut before 5:00pm. I then
drove to a bookstore nearby to wonder around. Had dinner at Wa, including
Shiner Bock. Drove back home after 7:30pm and relaxed at home. Rain came
again around 8:00pm. Stayed up until midnight.
