One Month Countdown...

It's the final countdown - 1 month left until the big day. Just got home from a great swim in the bay. I wanted to let you all know that training has been going great. Been swimming, biking, and running like a madman. Whether I'm biking through the Berkeley hills, running with Pua from our house to Cesar Chavez Park and the waterfront or along the Ohlone Trail, or swimming in Aquatic Park - I'm hitting them all and hitting them hard. In fact, 2 weeks ago I did an Alcatraz crossing - it was awesome. (picture below - not the most appealing, but...) I've been really enjoying the bay swims as of late, something about the cold water wake-up call and vast openness of the water, seems to be the most exciting!



Anyways, I wanted to thank everyone who has contributed already, it really means a lot. I also wanted to send out a reminder to those of you who have yet to donate but still would like to - it's not too late. The information is below. We are trying to gather all donations to be in by race day on June 14th, so you still have a month. Thanks so much for all your support.

Stay tuned to this incredibly exciting blog as race day approaches to find out information about where to go if you want to come out on race day to cheer on the competitors.

Thanks again everyone for all your support - it has been fantastic!
