Jay: In July 2010, I took some time to
evaluate happiness in my life. I’d love to
tell you that I’m happy 100% of the time
but you and I both know that I’d be telling

yourself and everyone wants to help you do why not!? I had done a couple of races, I like
your best. I can tell you after 30 years of surf- the sport and it seems like a good idea, right?
ing, most surfers are not like that.
Yes, it was a GREAT IDEA! It was one of the
My first race was Solana Beach Sprint hardest things I’ve done both physically and
