We really appreciate COMMENTS! Knowing that you are out there watching us and cheering us on means a lot. So post a comment. We read them every time we post. We are at the Borden Country Store (whoo hoo) waiting for Maverick. The reason no Piraña Brothers are in the picture is we are too […]

Maverick is out on the road now. Goose killed his leg too, so we continue to gain time! And we caught up with the race director, Jay: It is still WAY TOO HOT, and we are taking it a little easy.

Ok. for those of you keeping score: Goose is currently running leg 13. It is 3:00 PM in Texas and we are just down the road from the “Outpost”. T3 has Achilles problems and lost 5 minutes on his last leg, but Weeble killed his leg and made up almost 5 minutes (when it absolutely […]

Wait, we ARE in Flatonia. Of course, we are struggling to get Mav to keep his shirt on… And of course, we are always happy to to see the big blue rest cubicles. Weeble burned up his leg and handed off to Maverick. We have made quite a few friends, though some of them are […]

Everyone is starting up their second leg now. Goose took off from Shiner and handed off to T3 who then handed off to Big: We continue to be out in front, but we do not expect that to last

We have had very poor to no signal on the WIFI so it has taken a while to get this post up. Well, so far so good. Weeble did leg 4 (4.46 miles) in 38:19 for a 8:33 pace. He finished coming up a big hill into a park and still in he fog. We […]

It is still very foggy out. This is the now infamous Team Piraña van at the 3rd exchange as we wait for Maverick to finish his leg. There was no porta-potties at this exchange so we had fun watching people pull up, get out, look around, then eventually head into the woods carrying baby wipes […]

Goose ran the second leg in 39:39 for a 8:15 pace. Maverick is out on leg 3 and we are out in front at this point. Of course, since teams are starting later and later, we will eventually be caught and will certainly be beat by time before the day is done. No worries though, […]

Team Piraña is off to a great start! After a short delay while we waited for Goose to get out of the baños (in all fairness everyone took a fairly long turn this morning) we heading up the road from Shiner to Gonzales to start our journey to Houston. We parked the van and caught […]

One last post tonight! Just some pics of the team getting ready to go: T3 blogging….Big and Goose packing….and Maverick eating (as usual) This is Weeble sitting on the couch in “our” living room watching the Matrix on satellite TV. We are ready to rumble! See ya tomorrow!
