What a beautiful day for a run on the beach! I had the pleasure of running in the 2nd annual Teen Driving Safety 5K at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas this morning. We ran north on the beach and the tide got a little high but some wet feet were survived! I ran the course twice to get some miles in (7.09) in about 69 minutes.
They had a few speakers that were good reminding us all that using your phone while driving in ANY WAY is dangerous and just a couple of seconds can make all the difference when we are traveling at speed. The driving while intoxicated is just such an obvious thing now that I can't understand how it happens but unfortunately it does.
I found a short video from the inaugural event on YouTube to get a glimpse. The last speaker, I believe is name was Victor, was pretty powerful. He has stepped up his game as a speaker from this video & his strength in overcoming his difficulties is very inspiring. I'll put up this year's video if it gets posted in the near future.

Time to get some more grading done! A teacher's job never stops! Take care, enjoy your weekend!
Before I go, a Don's sports update: Boys soccer advance to the semis by defeating West hills 2-0 last night. Boys Hoop crushed Olympian 90-43 to move on to the semis. Girls soccer dismantled Monte Vista 7-0 with Betsy Muirhead scoring a hat trick! On to the semis for them! Girls hoop played tonight at Valley Center and what a barn burner it was! They were down by as many as 13 I believe and down by 8 at the half but rallied back to push the game to overtime where they won on a last second jumper by Wendy Anae at the elbow! What an exciting game! On to the semis! ROLL DONS!
Love you Mom & Dad! <3
Total miles: 324.16 Pace runner: 307.85 Getting back ahead feels good!
