MY COMMENT: How many NFL quarterbacks can run 13 miles? Nice job Troy. I am betting that he is thinking marathon someday.

Troy Aikman To Run Half Marathon



After he retired from the NFL following the 2000 season, Aikman ran to stay in shape. He is a frequent user of the Katy Trail, the greenbelt along which the former Missouri-Kansas-Texas (MKT or Katy) Railroad traveled through Dallas. The 3.5-mile running, biking and hiking trail is a public park maintained by The Friends of Katy Trail, a non-profit organization with 1,200 members.

MY COMMENT: Aikman is hoping to break 2 hours. I love the fact that a 3.5 mile trail can garner such tremendous community support! Check out Friends of the Katy Trail blog.
