A quick update from Thailand’s Andaman Coast. But first, I want to give a shout out to my buddies at the Anaheim Golf Association – they voted collectively to make a very generous donation to the LLS! Thanks to them and all of my donors I have surpassed the 50% milestone toward my goal of $5000!
I am now in southern Thailand for field work related to a National Geographic Society sponsored project to study ancient tsunami deposits. Long days in the field, temperatures in the upper 90s (with humidity to match) and some of the most intense rainstorms on the planet have not been conducive to marathon training. I did get in an 8-miler (captured in the photo by one of my co-researchers ) our second day here. The last 4 miles were through a deluge that flooded the streets. Our field work is now over so I should get back to some long runs later this week.
Go Team!
