Calling all Austinites,

On Sept 15th, a friend and colleague, Justin Gabriel, had a serious accident that put him into a coma. Justin ran at Adams State and works in my town of Austin at Runtex. He also filmed for the Austin Distance Challenge Website. He is a great guy and a lot of fun. Justin is staying at Cambridge Hospital in Austin, Tx for a couple more days and then the plan is to move him to a rehab center. You can check up on Justin and how he is doing here:

Runtex, Justin's friends, and the City of Austin are gathering together at Runtex tomorrow for a "Keep Justin Running" candle light walk. If you are in Austin come on down to the Runtex by the 0.0 mark on Town Lake at 8PM. There will be a 2 mile walk and some music afterword. If you are in town you should come check it out. 

We are all keeping Justin in our thoughts and prayers,

Mark
