Race Pictures

Here are some pictures from the Big Sur race, photographed by SD.

The things we do to run!Early morning wake-up call.

Open 24 HoursFortunately for me, this Denny's was just across the street from the hotel and open 24 hours for pre-race nutrition.

Love is walking your wife to the bus before the sun is even up.

26.2How far is that marathon?

Another hippie medalMedaled!

Bragging Rights!Michele and Eric met us for some post-race coffee later that night. They're wearing their "I Survived Hurricane Point" shirts. They're too modest to wear their medals; however, I wore mine all day and to dinner! The marathon finisher's medal has the Bixby Bridge on it--that's the one I want next.

It was really great to meet and spend time with both of you!

Bixby Bridge, the coast, Monterey, the Z-car, were all very enjoyable.

Thanks for being a part of a very memorable weekend in our lives.

Hope you are doing great.

What a huge piece of hardware! I'm instantly jealous. I loved the Fying Pig medal I collected last week, with its deep relief pig on both the front (head) and back (tail), but now I see one that's even more spectacular. Congratulations on earning it!

Loved the pictures! I had a good laugh at the cell phone pic with the wake up time!!!

I'm hoping we'll be able to see each other while you're here for the marathon next month. Keep me posted.
