Reach the Beach 2007


For the second year, a group of fellow (mostly gay) athletes and I participated in the Reach the Beach relay race, which stretches over 200 miles and lasts approximately 24 hours. This year we dubbed ourselves the "Urinators", after an incident last year that led to our team being disqualified - yes, two of our group last year were caught urinating in a park. Apparently this was grounds for disqualification.
This year we finished in the top twenty, averaging a 7 minute per mile pace. It's one of those fun, exhausting experiences that leaves you swearing that it will be the last time, yet looking forward to next year....
