MISSION VIEJO — Sally Boles ran for her life — without question. She felt a warm breeze, the sun against her back, and a whole lot of love when she set out to run around Lake Mission Viejo on her 40th birthday Thursday. “I didn’t want a party,” Boles said. The 5-feet-8, 128-pound mother of three just wanted to run 40 miles. Boles, of Mission Viejo, began at 5:15 a.m. with friends who had decorated signs with words of encouragement and had posted them along the course of the lake.

Sellers told me he did the same thing when he turned 40, only he ate 40 baked goods from Starbuck’s in 40 minutes instead. See you at the start line on Saturday Greg. Save me a scone for after the race.
