Help Me Choose My Weekend; May 18-19, 2018

The original plan for the weekend was to:

1.)  Attend the Winnipeg Goldeyes at Cleburne Railroaders baseball game on Friday night.
2.)  Stay in Mineral Wells.
3.)  Run the Run For 57th AHC Half Marathon in Graford on Saturday morning.
4.)  Drive to and stay in Amarillo Saturday night.
5.)  Run the Hope & Healing Place Half Marathon in Amarillo on Sunday morning, then drive home after attending church.

What has put me off of that plan?  A $90 price for the half marathon on Sat. morning and it only has 49 registrants so far.

So what are my other options?

Fly to El Paso on reward travel on Friday and return Sunday night or Monday morning.  The trip would include:

1.)  Fresno at El Paso baseball game Friday night.
2.)  A 5K in either El Paso or Alamogordo, New Mexico on Saturday morning.
3.)  A 10K at 5 p.m. in Alpine, Texas that starts outside of Kokernot Field and finishes on home plate.
4.)  A 5K on Sunday morning in El Paso.
5.)  If returning on Monday morning, a possible drive up and back to Albuquerque to catch a minor league game there.

Or it could be flying to Oklahoma City on reward travel, which has a myriad of options.

Option #1 would be:
1.)  Oklahoma City Dodgers game Friday night.
2.)  A half marathon in Woodward, Oklahoma on Saturday morning.  6:30 a.m. start.
3.)  The half marathon in Amarillo on Sunday morning.
4.)  Fly up Friday morning and home on Sunday night.

Option #2 would be:
1.)  Tulsa Drillers game Friday night.
2.)  Half marathon in Joplin, Missouri on Saturday morning.
3.)  Oklahoma City Dodgers game Saturday night.

Option #3 would be:
1.)  Tulsa Drillers game Friday night.
2.)  5K in Midwest City, Oklahoma at 8:45 a.m. on Saturday morning.
3.)  5K in Norman, Oklahoma at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday morning.
4.)  Oklahoma City Dodgers game Saturday night.

I'm torn and the clock is ticking.  Which one would you pick?
