Harding Hustle 2011
I had so much fun volunteering last year at the Twin Peaks 50/50, handing out water to amazing athletes at the top of Saddleback Mountain, that when Dirty Feet Productions came calling for the Harding Hustle, I had to answer.

Between the two of us we will run a full marathon tomorrow! Posted via email from poweredbysteam’s posterous

Last weekend I volunteered at the Twin Peaks Ultramarathon. The race is practically in my backyard, taking place in the Cleveland National Forest around Saddleback Mountain. The course is scenic but brutal.

After a thorough soaking Friday and Saturday the clouds parted in Southern California making Sunday a beautiful day.

My first “mud run” was a great! The Camp Pendleton Mud Run course was a little longer than the advertised 10K but I could have cared less. Scrambling up muddy hills and sloshing through the mud pits was a blast!

May 3 was a glorious day for a race but, as it turned out, my first marathon was a race simply to finish, and not a race against the clock.

Children pick up your bad habits quickly. I’m glad they also seem to pick up the good ones. Emma and Henry ran their first “race” this 4th of July after I finished the Freedom Run 10K in Ladera Ranch.

Last Sunday the NY Giants pulled off an upset victory over the New England Patriots. That was exciting and all, but I’m here to talk about something far more exciting. Last Sunday I ran my first half-marathon.

If you’ve seen “Band of Brothers” then the name Currahee will be familiar. Easy Company was forced to repeatedly run the mountain while training for WWII. While we were in Toccoa for Christmas I decided to tackle Currahee Mountain myself.
I’m sure you’ve been waiting… anxious with anticipation that we should once again ask for your help as we participate in the 2007 Race for the Cure. This year we are participating as a member of Team GameSpy.
