SPRING 2010 - Playa del Run at Huntington Beach

It's been quite a Spring season of runs for me. On June 5, 2010 it was time to try out my first beach run and sand sprint...yes, TWO races in one day. The 5K Beach Run was a refreshing one as it was right along the shore in beautiful Huntington Beach! A half-hour after the 5K, I participated with others in the one-mile sand sprint. Nothing like running on loose sand through obstacles along the way. Overall, it was an amazing morning having two fun races back-to-back!




SPRING 2010 - Xterra Trail Run at Crystal Cove

After multiple postponements since December 2009, the Xterra Trail Trun at Crystal Cove finally happened on April 25, 2010. This was my first ever trail run, and while it was only a 5K it certainly felt like more! Fortunately this was at Crystal Cove, one of the most scenic trail run spots you could ask for. The hills were steep, but the scenic views were serene. While it was such a grueling first trail run for me that after completing it with my friends, I'm ready to sign up for the next Crystal Cove Trail Run! Let these pictures speak for itself!



SPRING 2010 - Irvine Lake Mud Run


The Spring Irvine Lake Mud Run was held on April 10, 2010. My friends and I had such a great time at the mud run in October that we decided to invite more of our friends from Facebook and Twitter. In the end we had about 31 folks combine into The socialMUDia Team! We ranged from the newbie runners, to the triathletes ... and everyone in between! I put my FlipUltraHD in its waterproof case and took to the mud. Check out the pictures showing the fun socialMUDia had!

SPRING 2009 - Under8 Flag Football

Both of our sons, Joshua and Justin, participated in the i9 Sports Flag Football league this Spring. They were a part of the 2009 U8 Spartans this season. It was amazing watching them learn how to play the game of football from the first day of practice, until the last tournament game. The "i9 Sports Experience" is a great way to introduce them into a balance between sportsmanship and competition.

As a proud Daddy I grabbed the video camera and picked highlights from this season's games, not only for our boys but also for the other parents and players to enjoy: 2009 U8 Spartans.
