A healthy addiction Costa Mesa CEO has completed nine lronman races since battling drug use. 8?.ce Alderton Daily Pilot J uly's Ironman Challenge Race in Lake Placid, N.Y., is supposed to bestow the title of •fittest chief executive officer" In the UnJted States, a distinction Mike Dannelley, president and managing member of a Costa Mesa mortgage company, doesn't take Ugbtly. Dannelley, 46, will attempt to complete his 10th lronman -an event that includes a 112-mile bicycle ride, 2.4-mile swim and 26.2-mlle run -since entering his first triathlon in late 1985, two months after quitting cocaine for good, when the CE.O Olallenge Is held July 25. The race is a qualifier for the Iron.man Triathlon world championships, held each October ln Kona, Hawaii. Dannelley has already qualified for that race, which limits the number of athletes to 1,500. The Irvine resident, husband and father of three children, has Invested much of his time Into creating a healthy lifestyle, which was missing 19 years ago. ·1 was near.death, I had a lot of close calJs," said Dannelley, who suffered a drug-induced heart attack that required hospitalization. "I had been addicted for so long with sports ... It was a pace l couldn't keep up with. ft was a serious health Issue at that point." Dannelley led an active lifestyle of running, biking and surfing as a youth, but drugs got In the way of many of those sports for 10 years. He has been clean since Sept. 19, 1985. That year, Dannelley spent six weeks ln rehabilitation and, three months later, entered his first triathlon In Los Angeles. He said he was encouraged to enter the race by a man whose name Dannelley couldn't recall. The swimming portion provided a staunch challenge for Dannelley, but he soon found he loved lrlathions. •1 was the last person out of the lake, but I knew how to swim," Dannelley said. "I needed the entire 18-mUe bike ride to regain my composure, but I was hooked. "I took up tria thlons aJmost In lieu of (drugs]. It was a coincidence, but (I wanted a h ealthy lifestyle)." Dannelley, who lived in Newport Beach for ~O years, entered his first lronman race in 1993. Kis beat lime in an lronman came ln 1997 Jn Zurich, Switzerland, when he finished In 10 hours. 39 seconds. Dannelley's best finish in seven World Oiampionshlps is seventh. He hopes to join wife Mary. who is competing In the women's 35-39 age division at Lalc.e Placid. Mary Dannelley will attempt to 11ecure one of the top five places, which traditionally has been the • cutoff for entry Into the world championships, out of hundreds of athletes in her age division. This will be her fifth lronman race. Both Mary and Mike Dannelley competed in last year's world championships. "You walk away wilh a respect for that race you didn't previously have." Mary Dannelley said of the world championships. Despite the difficulty of squeezing time to train for triathJons within the demands of raising a family and holding Jobs, Mary and Mike Dannelley covet the tlme they spend together -exercising. Mike Dannelley said he trains an average of 12 hours a week. lfiathlons limit the occurren ce of overuse injuries, he said. "If you manage a family and business, it is difficult to' run every day, .. Mlke Dannelley said. "The best hope is lo find time to run two or three days a week a nd find time to biJce and swim (with decreased miles if done on the same dayl. With the decreased miles on the road, you are less likely to get hurt." "Kids are the first priority a nd jobs are a close second," Mary Dannelley saJd. "The sport is a very healthy way to spend your time. There are weeks you put in more hows than others. but you have to keep the sport in perspective." Mike Dannelley has focused his energy on sponsoring professionals to increase the visibility of the sport. Both Mary and Mike Dannelley said 1he allure of triathlon is the accomplishment that comes wilh finishing. "There Is more to (the lronmanf than physical strength,• Mary Dannelley said. "So much of the race is a test of your mental toughness inside." One look to her husband and she's reminded of that thought.

And, when he truly matured, physically, be came into his own at Vanguard University, then Southern California College. But lhis story is not about Larry Hirst the player. It's about the boys basketball coach of Newport Harbor High. Coincidentally, patience and loyalty are stilJ themes within his weren't, physically. as good as their opponents. ~He was just a good man," Hirst continued. "If you could grow up and be half of Bill Reynolds, you would be a pretty good man." Hirst earned two degrees In college, for liberal arts, as well as health/physical educadon and recreadon In 1984. Initially, Hirst wanted to be an elementary teacher. He was a student teacher at College Palk Elementary in Newport Beach. coaching style for the Larry Hirst He also coached for two years with Reynolds. At that time, the college had a junior varsity team and Hirst coached that squad in addition to Sailors. For I lirst, the work to acquire the tools to become a coach of a respected program began on the bench at Edison High. ·1 was very average In high school,· Hirst said. "I was about 6-foot-2, 150 poundS as a senior." Though Hirst was under the radar, he still developed a passion for the game. "I started to fall In love with basketball my freshman year," Hirst said. •1 had Coach Paul Harrell. Dave .Mohs was my sophomore coach. With those two guys, they instilled ln me the love and lhe work ethic, all the intangibles that go with sports and education." After graduating from Edison, Hirst went to Southern California College, which is now Vanguard, In Co$ta Mesa. where be met his mentor, Coach Bill Reynolds. Hlrst grew to 6-6 and Improved his skills as a basketball player, earning All-NAIA District Ill honors, as well as first-team all-conference laurels. Hirst, a four-year starter, was named the team's MVP and co-capla.ln his senior year. Kis ability to become a better player haa helped him ln his career as a coach, yet it was what he learned from Reynolds that made an especially lasting Impression. "After you get done playing for Bill, you want to modeJ him," Hlnt said. •1 wanted to be like him. When I look back at playing at sec 1 think back about how be just got the maximum effort and desire from a group of guys who assisting Reynolds. .,lirst said be gained valuable experience while coaching at Vanguard. "The real lmpact It had in me Is that it fueled the fire for what I wanted to do," Hirst said. Hirst aald he learned the strategy and the lntricades of the game from Jon Borchert, who was coaching at Edison in 1986. Hirst. who taught at TeWinkle Intennediate for 11 years, coached the fleshrnan team at Edison and assisted the varsity for 10 years.

Hirst said he learned the most from Borchert. They would have to prepare against teams in the Sunset League, whlch featured players such a5 Oierokee Pads (Marina) and Tony Gonzalez (Huntington Beach). "lt was a thrill to coach at my alma mater," Hirst said. "I went back to the place that got It all started for me. You always want to go back home and give back.

I'd segregate them according to type. keeping all the game pieces with each game and puzzle pieces with each puzzle. I wasn't golog to let his toys tum Into the unrecognizable plies of Junk. But now, six yea.rs later, es I look arollnd f'QY son's bedroom, I see an old coffee can full of trading car~. glow-in-the-dark stars, rocks and toy cars, and multiple plastic tubs overflowing with action figures, cowboys and Indians, dinosaurs, comic books·and more trading cards. How did I let it get this out of control? I've done a pretty good job of keeping game and puzzle 0 pleces together and I can honestly say I've never loit a puule piece, but what do you do with the rest of the toys to keep them out from under foot and eesy t6 ftnd? Clever planntng and lmaglnatJve solutions are the answers. Children don't Uke messes any more than adults do and are usually willing to help you get things back In orde.r. They often come up with wonderful organizing k:leos, so don't overlook their suggestions. H~re are some help toy management Ideas. Keep like Items together. See-through storage boxes are great for keeping toys organized. They come tn aU sizes, and since you can see through them, It's easy to Identify what's inside. Plastic zipper lock bags In various sJzes work well for keeping small sets of toys together. A really big plastic tub with rope handJes on either aide Is good for holdlng basketballs, soccer balls, baseball gloves and bells, jump ropes.and other sports equipment. Be creative In flndJng ways to keep the craft/paint supplles In order. This can be a fairly large amount of paraphernalia: paper, markers, paints, crayons, scissors, glue, tape, pipe cleaners, glitter glue and pens, etc. Depending on the age of your children, you may want to keep these supplies out of reach or easily accessible. If you have a young chlld who likes to get Into everything, you may want to keep the craft supplies on an upper shelf or In a locked.cabinet. For older children, set up·a craft area they can access anytime. Provide an old table for crafts -one that won't mind a llttJe spllJ of paint or extra glue now and then. Use a tall, narrow stack of drawers to hold craft supplies. Label the outside of each drawer, so Items can be easily and quickly returned to the proper drawer. For artwork, whether done at school or at home, hang as much of It as you can. Children are proud to show off their handiwork. Bulletin boards are always a good way to display artwork. Designate one strictly for artwork and rotate the art with the seasons. Hang the bulletin board In the kitchen or family room, so the entire f amlly can enjoy and comment on the budding artist's work. Keep a few Inexpensive picture frames on hand and let your child choose which pieces they'd like framed. Rotate the artwork within the frames as new creations appear. If you have a hard time throwing out your child's artwork, store It In plastic tubs. Once a year, g0 through the artwork and put the best pieces Into a scrapbook. Label it with the grade or year your child created the art. You'll find It fun to look back over the years and see how their talents have developed.

Instead, why not go ~ 1 to the library and open up a whole new world of wonder for your child? sentences. As your children get older, you may also have the opportunity to explain dJfficult situations, answer their questions and discuss their reactions to the story. By Doris A . Bleck 1{ et's face it. Parenting is tough and you're not likely ~ to get immediate feedback on the decisions you make and the attitudes you adopt. It will be years before you see the results of your parenting skills, good or bod. But there Is one area where experts say you can't go wrong -reading to your kids. Endless fantasies, boundless adventures, foreign worlds and sympathizing with the kid next door are all part of the excitement you can share with your children by reading to them. In addJtion, you give them a jump-start on Intellectual development and ocademic achievement. What porent doesn't want to help their children excel. Children benefit from the mental stimulation associated with listening to stories. Of course, reading more than one or two books takes time and requires starting for bed extra early, not always on eosy feat when it's still light outside during the long days of summer. Young chiJdren tend to latch on to one or two f avorlte books that they could listen to every day. But after reading them a few hundred times, ' To make story time special, don't allow Interruptions. If the phone rings, ignore It: Jumping up to answer It may send the message that the phone is more Important than your children, so let the answering machine get the calls each evening. You can always listen to the messages letter. As your children get older and progress from picture books to first reader books, you may want to let them read port of the story. You can read the left-hond page, for exomple, while they reod the right-hand page. Later, your child wlll move to chapter books. After all, those books have very few pictures and lots of text. By reoding with your children, not only can you instill a love of books in them but you can enhance their brain development. According to experts, the brain is not fully developed at birth, and it is the experiences of life and the attochments babies make that allow the neurons In the brain to complete the connection process. As these connections are reinforced, they become permanent. This ls why stimulation ls crucial when children are very young. Even just looking at picture books stimulates the brain. Reading to young chJldren also helps them discover the relationship between objects and words, and words and Numerous studies have shown that children two to three yeora old who were read to everyday were more likely to be at the top of their kindergarten class in learning and communication skills. They were also consistently better at mathematics, while their classmates who were only read to a few times a week scored lower in all of these areas. There are other benefits to reading together each night. Right before bedtime, when you're both relaxed, Is the perfect time to talk. Youngsters tend to open up, and If you're willing to listen, you can use that opportunity to form a close bond of love and trust with your children. So invest a little time in your children every day. Open up the world of books to them and let their Imaginations be Inspired.

Black I 'II never forget my first experience flying with a preschooler. My son was three years old, and we were going to Florida. It was going to be a marvelous trip, I told myself, and my son would probably sleep most of the way. Boy was I wrong. Things started to go awry from the get-go. For some reason the alarm clock didn't go off. I just happened to wake up at 5:30 a.m. for a 6:30 a.m . flight. I hadn't packed yet and the airport was a good 45 minutes away. Panic stricken, I threw some things into the suitcases at warp speed, my mind racing a mile a minute trying to remember everything I'd need: snac!<s for.the aiwlane; tpys1 boqks and crayons for entertaining my son on the plane; a camera; clothing; suntan lotion and sunglasses; etc. I grabbed my son from his bed, threw some clothes on him and raced to the car. To this day, I don't know how we made It to the airport In time to catch our flight. It wasn't until we were seated on the plane that my heart finally stopped pounding and I could began to relax, or so I thought. The flurry of activity had completely exhausted me, but it had stimulated my three-year-old. He was bouncing off the walls with excitement. To make matters worse, takeoJfs and landings make me nervous, and we had ti.yo stops to make before heading to Florida. With each stop, I had a white-knuckled grip on the armrests as I held my breath and prayed for a safe arrival or departure. Meanwhile, my son was having a great time. Have you ever tried to entertain a preschooler in a confln~d space for hours on end? They never sit still. Each item I pulled from the entertainment bag held his attention for about five minutes. I couldn't have been more relieved when we finally touched down in Florida seven hours later. As it turned out, the only thing I had neglected to pack was my swimsuit, of all things. But our week at the beach was grand. The weather was perfect, the water warm and the sand fun. Then it was time to go home -the dreaded connecting flights again and the seven hours of entertaining a preschooler, left me to wonder if I would survive. After three hours of travel, as we were changing planes in Miami, the airline announced that It had overbooked our flight and asked volunteers to give up their seats In exchange for a later flight. There were no takers. When the airline announced it would give flight vouchers to anyone willing to give up their seat, I took the $750 worth of free air travel, gathered our belongings t1nd grabbed the vouchers. I vowed then and there that If this situation should ever happen again I'd be prepared. Traveling with a preschooler Is not easy, but these five simple trips will help you cope. Tip 1 : Double-and triple-check the alarm clock. Tip 2: Pack the night before even If you have to stay up all night doing It. Tip 3: Make sure you bring enough games and toys to entertain your child throughout the flight. Tip 4: If possible, fly direct. Tip 5: You can never be too prepared.
