Oceanside -> Cardiff -> Clairemont

Richard’s friend, Wendy, is joining Richard for his last 15 mile morning run from Oceanside to Cardiff Kook Statue! Wendy might be the happiest side kick runner we have seen yet! Cruising through Carlsbad!

 

Laguna Beach -> San Onofre -> Oceanside Harbor

Richard says most this run has been very spiritual for him. He thinks a lot about Emilio and ENF’s patients. Other times, he listens to his body and adjusts his form and/or breathing. He is running through San Clemente right now!

Rincon Mountain -> Oak View -> Mandalay Beach

Here he goes…an uphill, slow, 800 feet climb toward Ojai.

Ever wonder what Richard’s view is? What he sees? What he hears? Check out his view at the top of the Ojai mountain, looking out at Lake Casitas – heading downhill this morning!! Runners are supposed to look 10-20 feet ahead of them: Richard’s View
