The fastest runner turned in a time a few seconds under 1:05. I saw him come BACK…Continue

The Dipsea
Posted by Daniel Zelinski on June 17, 2014 at 6:06pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Running the Dipsea was a privilege - hopefully I'll get to do it again someday. And, next time I won't have to start in the very back (it is staggered with the fastest runners starting last).
Here's a video tour of the "course" - it is officially a point to point race - however you want to get to the beach (by foot); i.e., shortcuts are permitted.…
