THIS DAY IN HISTORY
30 years ago today, I was in the U.S. Navy Seabees, with Mobile Construction Battalion 5. We were on deployment on the island of Diego Garcia. I was a 20 year old youngster. On July 4, 1979 I was part of a relay race team, competing in the Tip to Tip Race. 38 miles, teams of 6, each runner ran a 6+ mile leg. To make a long story short, our team finished in 2nd place. It was an epic race, a memorable run and a great day, 30 years ago today.
