Humboldt Bay Races are upon us! We have no formal team this year, just a few of us crazies that will be stomping the ground for this small race with a huge heart!
First up, the tried-and-true Sei Hee! She will be running the Half Marathon again this year. This will be her first formal race since turning 40! She has been hitting the gym with me since December and is stronger and more able than ever…even though she doesn’t seem to think so. I can’t wait to see what she can do out on the course!
Next up, my lovely and dedicated gym-wifey, Shannon. She was unable to join us last year due to a grueling work schedule. She wasn’t going to miss the chance this year and was the first of the crew to sign up and begin training. I haven’t had the privilege to race with her since the Oakland Marathon at the beginning of 2022. I know she’s gonna kill it!
Finally, just me! Like I said, we’ve got a small crew this year. But just as The Humboldt Bay Race is small with a big heart, our team will be the same! I also have a great group of friends who are amazing enough to wake their asses up at the crack of dawn to volunteer!
The oh-so-talented and amazing Sandi Buchheister, owner and physical therapist for Pivotal Connections in Arcata. She is a sponsor of the race, but has taken on the finish line duties for the 2023 Humboldt Bay Races! She is also sponsoring several athletes who will be participating. Maybe next year we can convince her to run with us…
Make sure to look for her card with some sweet deals in your race swag-bag. You still have time to sign up for the race! Click the link here to check it out!
