I thought it was going to be a pretty small race, but there were a lot more runners than I expected. The race starts near Fish Plaza and you basically run down Memorial Drive and back. You run one loop for the 5K and two for the 10K. Not the most fun route, but it seems to be a common race route for a lot of smaller Houston races for road closure logistics, etc. There is just a slight bit of incline running over the bridge, but it's a flat course otherwise (as is expected in Houston). Post-race party runs true to the name -- plenty to chocolate to go around! It was my first time actually seeing a chocolate fountain in person, and I will shamelessly admit that I was pretty giddy about it ;).

Had a great time!!! Things started on time and were very organized. Looking forward to more!read more

The have food, beer/seltzer and waiting area for all racers to be until their name is called. They should definitely have a few more games to keep customers busy, I walked in and one guy was sleep on the bench and nearly missed his turn. The only issue I had is the employee mentioned that the next race for my son would be "in about 15 minutes" so we bought several races on the premise of thinking that we'd have enough time to do them all in one night! Well, she lied! We ended up waiting nearly an hour! I was pretty PO'd. However, you can keep the races you bought until next time you visit. Sucks if you don't live close though. It's only for 1 year.

There's no doubt that everyone at RideSmart plays an important role…read more Though, Brian Cole is directly responsible for creating some very core memories in my life, a rare thing. Coming from a riding hiatus (several years) after a very dramatic motorcycling accident, he renewed my confidence and established consistency in my riding capability, which has inspired me to continue. I was not the fastest, but I sure did learn fast. Purposefully, I was not quick. Asking to learn slow, to go smooth, where smooth becomes fast. He respected that. Brian was my advocate from the very beginning, always seeking to understand my goals and helping me reach them. He genuinely wanted to do the best for me, as a true mentor/instructor. Can't emphasize enough his commitment to advocate, he looked out for me as his student, the 1x1 instruction w/ him was perfect. A major credit to the RideSmart Team. Thank you!

The only thing that was worth coming to their class was getting to ride the COTA circuit itself. I…read morehave done another track day coaching in another state. In comparison, Ridesmart was a letdown. To say the least, the organization of sessions between every time you go out to the track and head back to the classrooms was not very comfortable. Another thing I noticed that if any of the candidates from level 1 wanted to learn and follow the instructor (follow his tires) on the circuit, they would have to be lucky enough to be picked up from a bunch of raised hands. With the other school I have seen that the every candidate gets to do that one by one for at least 2 laps. As you can tell by now, having too many people enrolled in level 1 is a problem. Furthermore, when you get to the circuit you get around 10-15 mins which means by the time you are on lap 2.5 or 3 the white flag comes up and you need to head back to the classroom. In all, it was a very chaotic experience for me and by the end of the day, I was exhausted and did not feel like I learned anything valuable.

Whether you're running, or volunteering it's for a great cause. It's quite a sight to see so many people as one, working towards a common goal (the finish line). As a runner, you not only get to traverse your favorite city in the great nation of Texas by foot, but you also get a chance to wait in line for port-a-potties spread throughout the course. The most common situation being the need to pee as soon as the race starts. The further out you can run at the beginning, the shorter the lines. After running there's a tent city waiting to welcome you with free foods, drinks and the best offers that expensive services and companies will give you. For those who start off in warm up clothing, and shed it as the race goes on, all clothing gets donated. So that's pretty cool. As a volunteer, you get a front row seat in a number of different areas, providing various services to runners and the community. Watching for traffic, cleaning up litter and clothing, offering runners water and other items, or other services provided by the race staff. Volunteers get shirts, and swag, as well as a jacket (which I didn't get because it was never delivered in my size. AHEM....a wee bit butt-hurt still. Our group BON Running Club, had a volunteer after party at Little Woodrow's. We're pretty awesome. For Health, Charity, personal goals, or because you're bored, the marathon is something you have to be in, to understand and enjoy. Yes, the idea of running in a giant circle when you life isn't in jeopardy seems a little much to some. However, it's good practice for when the inevitable zombie apocalypse begins, or our alien overlords arrive to establish dominance. Just do it the once so you know you can. Then you know you don't have to fear zombies with 5 mph speed limit.
