Makena Mile




Dream of running the beaches in Maui? Makena mile is the one part of the XTERRA World Championship race that can make or break competitors. Runners either pass or get passed at this spot before heading into the Spooky Forest.

Rich Cruse who is the best photographer in the sport...took these pics. You can see that I am in a mental mode of "just keep running" -very Survivorlike, until Rich calls out to me in a cheer. It was just a bit of relief that one needs to keep it going. I am so honored Rich gave me a shout out!
