MS Bike Ride - 9/20/08

I did the MS Bike Ride to help spread awareness of multiple sclerosis.

I thought it was a fun ride. We rode along the Santa Barbara and Monteceito beaches then I followed some people who got lost and rode along the back roads along the 229. Instead of doing the 30 miles I was signed up for, I wound up doing the 75 miles as I followed the people doing the 75 mile ride 1/2 way on their trail, then ride back to join the 30 mile trail. That was the hardest workout my legs every had. Here are some pics.

People Magazine Red Carpet Run

I did the People Magazine Red Carpet Run over the weekend.

I think it's a fun little 3 mile / 1.5 mile walk (I did the run). Well organized, however this was geared towards having fun and less competitive (they didn't even have a timer). We ran through the alleyways behind the backlots, didn't run through any movie sets though.

The finish line was a red carpet where you can do a glam pose in your sweating running clothes. Anyways, here are a couple pictures. I couldn't really take any pictures while running.


After the run, there was a concert by michelle williams

Watching AVP here in Santa Barbara over the weekend.



Here's me with the 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist Rogers/Dauhauser in the background playing.

Rogers/Dauhauser going up against Holdren/Strickland (Holdren was in the 2004 olympics) One of the best games of beach volleyball I've ever seen.



Rogers/Dauhauser receiving the key to the city from our Mayor. Rogers/Dauhauser are our local heros here in the Santa Barbara area.
