The Final Four Miler this year took place in Houston, TX. The race is a 4 mile run starting downtown in front of city hall and took us through, and around, 1 mile of city streets before exiting runners out on to Allen Parkway along the Buffalo Bayou. The course was flat as a pancake and provided speedy runners the opportunity to really go after it.

I enjoyed the run as it was a new distance for me. Slightly longer than a traditional 5k but also because it was family/stroller friendly. I have a little one I run with often and it's great when I can bring him along for the races as well. We are no slouches though as target around 7 min/miles with kiddo in tow.
