Instruction: why would someone run the Texas Independence Relay?

Response: The Texas Independence Relay (TIR) is an annual runners' festival in Texas with a lot of fun! It is a 200 mile relay starting from Gonzales town center, the course passes Shiner, Flatonia, Schulenburg, Weimar, and Columbus, and ends in downtown Houston. The race commemorates the Runaway Scrape of Texas independence from Mexico, and Gonzales is the pioneer place of Texas Revolution. The race has 36 legs and requires at most 12 runners in a team. It usually happens end of Mar or the beginning of Apr, which is the blooming time in Texas for wildflowers like bluebonnets. Overcoming the tough course with a team of cheerful and energetic run mates and enjoying the scenery in the meantime can be a memorable experience. In fact, a lot of the TIR teams are veteran teams who participate every year. It’s like an addiction! The supportive, caring vibes from all the runners, and festival-like celebrations along the course are the major attractors to runners.
