Just For Fun:
Dr. King is a self-proclaimed “average runner” and “average golfer,” but he does a lot of both – he even runs on his lunch breaks! He has completed 4 marathons with even more to come. You’ll probably find him running the coast or walking a local course. He loves to read and is very happy to be in Steinbeck’s backyard. He is enjoying living in such a beautiful place and exploring Monterey Peninsula with his wife and boys.
