White Rock Marathon


On Sunday, a great portion of our Mouton's Salon team participated in the White Rock Marathon which has taken place for the last 40 years in Dallas. http://www.runtherock.com/ This year the race started and finished at the American Airlines Center, while the course continued through downtown and Uptown Dallas, Highland Park, around White Rock Lake, Lakewood and portions of East Dallas. In running, our team raised funds for the PKD Foundation, in honor of one of our customers, who has been diagnosed with the disease. http://www.pkdcure.org/ This year's race allowed for relay teams in addition to the full and half marathon. Mouton's Salon was able to field 4 different 5 person relay teams that ran the entire race, plus our very own Tracy T, who ran the entire 26.2 miles to complete the course. In addition, Ashton P's husband, Justin ran and finished the half marathon on the behalf of Mouton's as well. Because of schedule conflicts and health related issues not all of our team was able to actually run, but even those who didn't run came down the the AAC to support the rest of us. Ashton P, Leslie S and her son and Tiffany M were on hand to cheer us all on. Tiffany also lent her son, Kyle, to help complete one of the relay teams. In addition to Kyle, we also had Robert's wife and brother-in-law, Ashley's husband and friend, Jessica W's friend and two of Carlyn's friends who assisted us. Rounding out the teams were two of Ali's friends as well. From Mouton's - Tracy, Carlyn, Robert, Kellie, Ashley, Sherri, Jennifer,Ali, Bruce and Teresa all competed in the race. Great job, everyone. All of you who joined us as "conscripted volunteers" - thank you as well.
