Astronauts vs Aliens-A 5.05K Race at the Johnson Space Center Houston

April 4th in Houston, Ben and I are going to challenge each other and numerous runners on either team Astronaut or Team Alien, by running through the NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston.  This is a 5.05K or 3.14mile race.  The race is sponsored by Starport Services.  It is an independent and self funded program designed to promote welfare and moral of Johnson Space Center Workforce, including wellness programs, fitness and recreational services, for the promotion of mental and physical fitness.  Ben is off that day, and we are ready to have an April practice race, so after a brief conversation, he decided he wanted to represent the Alien Team.  I joined on to race for the Astronaut team, as I have never been a sci-fi fan!

For those of you in the Houston area, the race begins at 9am and kicks off a Spring Festival that will host Houston Food Trucks, a Flea Market, Craft Fair and a kids Spring Festival.  It sounds like a good way to test our pace for April, see where we stand, and enjoy a bit of Houston Fun as part of our family Easter celebration this year.
