Run the Beach Marathon - July 17, 2011

Run the Beach Marathon was held in Huntington Beach California. The course was out and back on an incredibly scenic oceanfront bike path.  I finished 7:17.

It was great to see my favorite marathon maniac buddy Steve and the beautiful and fast Sally.
GO AFTER YOUR DREAMS...
You're good, but you're going to be great.
You're the best, but you're going to get better.
Sometimes the paths we take are long and hard, but remember: those are always the ones that lead to the most beautiful views.  Challenges come along inevitably: how you respond to them determines who you are - deep down inside - and everything you've going to be. Increase the chances of reaching your goals by working at them gradually. The very best you can do is all that is asked of you. Realize that you are capable of working miracles of your own making.  Remember that opportunities have a reason for knocking on your door, and the right ones are there for the taking.  You don't always have to win, but you do need to know what it takes to be a winner.  It's up to you to find the key that unlocks the door to a more fulfilling life.  Understand that increased difficulty brings you nearer to the truth of how to survive it - and get beyond it.  Cross your bridges.  Meet your challenges. Reach out for your dreams, and bring them closer and closer to your heart.  Get rid of the "if only's" and get on with whatever you need to do to get things right.  Go after what you want in life, with all the blessings of all the people who care about you.  And find out what making your wishes come true really feels like.
