Becky and I had a wonderful thanksgiving! We went down to Sacramento too see my folks and had the fantastic opportunity to compete in the Feed The Hungry race on Thanksgiving morning. There were 31,000 runners and over $1,000,000 was raised for the local food bank. The energy at the race was incredible, everyone getting together in a very positive way, to me the real reason for Thanksgiving. There were so many people it took me several minutes to cross the starting line. At every mile marker I was shouting out the split times, it was so cool, so many people asked "is that the split from the starting line". I would say yes and so many times people were so gracious and positive. What an incredible experience, it reinforced my core belief that we are all here to help one another, and the all human misery stems from withdrawing from that beautiful universal connection! I had so much fun I am going to compete in the Surf City Marathon in Huntington Beach with the purpose of raising as much money possible for disabled kids. If anyone wants to contribute the can send me a check payable to "Free Wheelchair Mission" it is totally tax detectable and I guarantee it will make you feel FANTASTIC!
