Steve McKinney - Honorary Race Starter

Steve McKinney (shown here with overall winners Brian Williams and Lisa Armstrong) proved to be one our most popular race starters.  Of course, who's going to tell him he wasn't.  The kids looked up in awe to receive their ribbons from the Houston Texan's starting center.  It turns out the adults did also.  Steve was a great sport staying from start to finish and patiently posing for what had to be a record number of pictures with fans and signing autographs.  Steve has used the Kick-Off Run as a springboard for his own football commentary show and as a roving reporter on the sideline for games he isn't playing in.  Steve is a local boy committed to the local community so we expect to be seeing him around for a long time even after his football career is over.  Thanks guy.


Two heroes:  Frank Culbertson was the Space Station Expedition 3 Commander when the 911 disaster occurred.  He was a friend to James and ran in the first Kick-Off Run in 1992.


That's my new best friend and my old best friend and co-race director, Mariglyn Glenn. There's my new best friend and ... me. Just in case anyone with a complaint forgets. Aggie Steve McKinney can tell when he's among friends.  That's Cathy Pinkston and Kevin Jenkins. Debbie Saldana, Houston Texan season ticket holder and fun run volunteer, meets Steve in person.

Now here's a Hall of Honor: Steve McKinney, Louis Ciaccio (age 82 - noted area runner and age group winner), overall winner Bryan Williams and brother Ryan Williams (2nd overall).
