I guess I forgot to post this one also... Man am I slackin' or what! ;P
========================================Long, long ago in a city far away there was this race and it was a nice race set on the edge of the sea. The day was cool and crisp with the sun just starting to break over the horizon. There was a whistle and a girl ran. She ran and ran and ran. The girl was feeling awake envigorated and energetic, she could feel it already, today was going to be a good day.
Well, that girl was me and I was right. It was a good day. It was a beautiful day to run a beautiful and scenic course across the golden gate bridge and back. I set out to enjoy myself and come in before the cut-off time of 3 hours. I not only thuroughly enjoyed myself and beat the cut-off but, I came in 1HOUR before the cut-off! Yay for me!
I'm not going to sugar coat it and say, "oh it was a piece of cake". It was anything but a piece of cake that's for sure. However, the weather was perfect, the scenery was beautiful and the course was well supported and organized. I especially ejoyed the little trivia posters scattered along the way. I was so absorbed in the trivia questions, that I barely noticed the hills I was climbing. Then, on the "flat" portions I was enthralled with watching the sea roll on by. I can honestly say, this is the first race that I enjoyed running so much that i lost track of time and was finished before I knew it. I highly recommend this race to anyone. One of the highlights for me was completing the California Dreamin' Series in Golden Gate Park. My 2 cents... 2 thumbs up! I can't recall anything to bitch about with this one. ;)
