Yesterday I took pictures of the Double Dipsea Race. I stationed myself in Stinson Beach, where the race starts and finishes, after turning around in Mill Valley, 7.2 miles away. Runners also have to climb almost 2,000 feet twice! About 600 runners did the race, which is handicapped by age and gender. In my picture you see one of the groups at the start of the race. Alex Varner, runner #3, in the center, finished in third place.
Modest though I am, I cannot let the opportunity pass without mentioning that, in my younger days (ending when I turned seventy-five) I ran twenty-four Doubles (as the race is affectionately called).
