Run in the Sun Marathon - Lake Forest, CA - 1/29/2012

Run in the Sun is one of my favorite local races.  I finished 6:40:07

I had the pleasure of walking with the legendary Mr. Jim Simpson. Jim's has run 875 lifetime marathons! Jim celebrated his 70th birthday and hopes to reach 1000 lifetime marathons within the next two years. That's amazingly awesome... Congrats Jim!

DREAM THE IMPOSSIBLE

All who have accomplished great things
have had a great aim
and fixed their gaze
on a gaol which was high -
one which sometimes seemed
impossible.
