Thanks to doing research for my Pace Per Mile state reports, I found the Newport Beach Challenge, their… [Read More]
Moral Support for a Marathon
In all the events I’ve attended, I’ve always been the runner. In several instances, there’s been folks along the course supporting me.

That time I met Deena Kastor in 2011
Very excited to see Deena at the Rock ‘n’ Roll Los Angeles expo today! I saw her when I ran the San Jose half marathon a few weeks ago, which she won (I was at mile 4 when she was at like mile 10). She signed my race bib!
