Austin Marathon week means a little more this year than ever before. It's the first race in ~14 months in Austin and it comes at the end of a wild ride. Now that life is getting 'back to normal' - this is awesome. We're obviously proud of the folks at High Five Events (William, Jack, Scott, and everyone that runs with us!) for working with the city to pull this off - it's great to see them back in business. We raised $20,000 for Just Keep Livin' earlier this year in conjunction with The Austin Gives Miles Campaign, The Moody Foundation, and Under Armour and now, in partnership with JKL, we have an aid station at Mile 7 this weekend. Our aid station is Mile 7 on Cesar Chavez next to Town Lake YMCA and the Pedestrian Bridge. Because the risk of Paras doing this on his own was too great, Christine Zavesky stepped up and is actually going to help captain the ship so we make sure Slim and Mark have water and Alonso gets a hug. You can sign up for our aid station here. We need you from 6am-10am, but if you can't make it the whole time just show up. Normally, we have a huge after party and it's a lot of fun (see: booze, food, DJ). We aren't quite yet in a world where that makes sense, so rather than host the Official Austin Marathon After Party, we're going to just say join and hang out with us at  Mean Eyed Cat 2p Sunday after the race If you ran, volunteered, or did neither and just watched the race and cheered on our friends, show up and hang out. We'll be scattered everywhere but it'll be a great time.  

WHY RAW

RAW began to bring people together who wanted to bust their ass each week to become better runners and improve their fitness. RAW has done just that. We've all met amazing people and have seen a lot of personal best go down along the way! It's been a great ride thus far and we look forward to continuing to roll down this road at HAF pace with all of you.
