The Katy Trail 5K is tonight, and it’s a great way to combine exercise and partying. Our friend who has done it says I shouldn’t worry about being a slow runner, because since there are so many people on the trail, the pace is pretty snail-like. Directly following the 5K, the partying begins, and if you’ve signed up for the VIP section, you’re in luck. Insiders tell me chefs Jeffrey Hobbs of Suze and Andrew Ormsby of AO Catering are putting together a memorable post-race meal for those who paid a little extra. But no matter what section you’re in you’ll still get beers. So there’s that.
If there’s one place I’d like to be tonight it’s at McFarlin Auditorium watching Conan O’Brien. Alas, I didn’t get tickets in time. If someone could please report back tomorrow, I’d appreciate it.
