The Chevron Houston Marathon circles our house. We watched the start at 7 a.m. on television while lying in bed. At 7:40 ish we went outside and cheered on the runners as they passed our local Thai Restaurant on Montrose Blvd. (Mile 7). At 7:55 we went home and brewed a thermos of coffee. At 8:30 we rode our bicycles to the Allen Parkway and watched the leaders as they passed the 23-mile point. The first six were all Ethiopian, I think. First in was Teshome Galana who set a course record of 2:07:52. The seventh was an American, Brett Gotcher, who ran the fastest time ever by an American on the Houston course: 2:10:35. First female was Teyba Erkesso, who also won it last year. Her husband ran all the way with her.
So there's one way to watch it. We were home by 9:30 a.m.
Congratulations to everyone who ran (or is still running).
