Here comes our furst view of the contestants! It looks like Benjie is out to a nice lead, though Oreo is close behind! Arty had better watch stopping to admire the Mile Marker, though -- it looks like Scylla is catching up, and Shyla is close behind!
Do you knows WHY Mile 13 is so impawtant? Well, it's not actually Mile 13 that matters. It's just a smidge farther, when you reach 13.1 miles and....
Mayor Stanley posing at the halfway point!
OMC, Addie and Dui are pole dancing! That's pretty bold for the middle of a marathon! Susie looks ready to go again. Ruby and Misaki seem to be having a strategy session, but I think Wyatt is listening in!
Grreat job, everyone! Now let's head on into the second half of the marathon! As we round into Mile 14, the course turns through some absolutely GAWJUSS Texas bluebonnets. Sugar is taking a slight lead over Charlie, but Fenris is close behind. Princess Leah is taking a royal break to take in the scenery. And WOW! Look how grreat Bailey is doing pushing both his sissies in that stroller!
Look at Haley and Zaphod go! They're going to chase up to Dory if she's not careful. Walter and Bentley look like they're plotting to make a break. And isn't it great that Lily and Edward are staying together? Siblings are fun to run with!
I'm kind of worried about Roxy and Bella, though. Are they lost?
...Um. Guys? You might, uh, want to try running just a teeny bit faster. Because, uh...
And he brought friends! STAMPEDE!!!
RUN, guys!! Head for Sweet William the Scott's for Mile 16, and maybe you can lose 'em!
Woah and look out, keep running!!! You are all doing sooooooo great. I love that you got to relax. Now watch for my pizza truck and I will see you at the finish line for foodables.

Gotta run fast, why I did not know running the bulls was a part of the Mayorz Marathon. I don't want one of those horns sticking it to me, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend

OMD! A stampede! We NEED to get outta here! Are you sure we're only halfway through?
ReplyDeleteoh that's not easy to run between that running steaks, huh? wait Bailey I help you a little with the stroller... :o)

You know, I think a little dance break was all I needed to shake off the blahs and get ready for the second half of the race!
ReplyDeleteWell, this course is anything but boring. Great running everyone!
ReplyDeleteI can hardly keep up! This is such fun and your Texas scenery is spectacular. Mol mol Murphy must not have seen a longhorn until today!

Oh my dog! Benji is in the lead! He is probably on a sugar high from eating all the donuts at the pit stop. Lol. Go Benji!
ReplyDeleteThanks fur your birds eye view of the race, Pigeon the cat and Scribbles.
Oh boy that Dui is a live wire :) and poor old Easy' ears flapping in the breeze hahahaah :) run guys! hugs Fozziemum xx
ReplyDeleteI never woulda expected the race to be so dangerous. I guess that is what I get for going on vacation right before the big race. Everyone is doing such a great job. I'm glad I'm just cheering from the side, all that danger would terrify me!
ReplyDeleteBow Wow, first Big Foot and a Shark, now we have the running of the bulls and pole dancing! I'm so glad my sister Stanzie is here to watch out for me!
ReplyDeleteWyatt

That was a close one with those big cows with those scary horns.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - the cows with the sharp horns scared the heck out of everyone!
ReplyDeleteWell done, BRAVO! We thought we were done for with the stampede. Pole dancing in the middle of a marathon - great idea!!
