BR's Surf City Marathon Report - February 3, 2008

Most certainly, I had been looking forward to Surf City Marathon weekend since registering for the event in early January. Not only was I going to run a marathon in beautiful, sunny Southern California, but I would have the opportunity to meet all the fabulous people with Free Wheelchair Mission (FWCM) and the Run for Mobility.

Barefoot Rick's Barefoot Running Mission Statement

"Barefoot running is FUN! It allows me to feel the ground and to land lightly thereby increasing my enjoyment. God has given me the ability to enjoy this remarkable gift! As an ambassador for Christ and for barefoot running, I hope to encourage all runners to enjoy running a little more and to challenge their pre-conceptions of what a runner (and a Christian) should be. I seek to inspire those who have never ran in their lives to try it, shod or unshod, and that my daily runs would inspire others to a healthier and more spiritual lifestyle. I do not suggest that barefoot running is for everyone, however I do hope that my example will lead others to find inspiration and ultimately enjoyment through their individual running and spiritual journeys."
