Top of the World Picture on New Year's Day
I'm happy to report that everyone made it to the top of the notorious "Section 3" (or Del Cerro Park in layman's terms) on New Year's Day... 13 Beach Runners with our 2 guests, Heather and Meow (photographer), and Sassy the ChiRunning dog.
The Lucky 16 made their way thro… Continue

I would walk 11 miles for Dimsum...
While some were doing their long runs, or preparing for their races this weekend, my Beach Runner not-in-training friends and I decided to have Dimsum in Chinatown. We, OF COURSE, had to earn the calories before we ate them. So we went on an 11 mile hike yesterday to 2 of Los An… Continue

WHOSE IDEA WAS THIS ANYWAY? (SoCalRunning Members and Friends Conquer Mt. Baldy)
It was the best day for a hike. Great weather, good company, and everyone was expecting spectacular views of the San Gabriel Mountains and the valley below. We were all ready for the challenge ahead. We had 2 groups – the fast and the faster. Or better yet – the virgins a… Continue

GET DIRTY!
... on National Trails Day, that is. Today, we made a difference. Today, we restored some trails. Today, we pitched in (literally!) for the environment.
Getting dirty had some perks. We found new trails at the Portuguese Bend with breathtaking views. We met great volunteers. We had a sampling of some homemad… Continue

Sandstone Peak via Mishe Mokwa Trail
My weekend was set. Been dreaming about this weekend for a month now. But you know how life takes a sudden turn, and then before you know it Plan B is in force. Thanks to Sandy, I found myself quite excited about Plan B. You just have to go with the flow and enjoy the ride.
This morn… Continue

Remember me?!? We met last year at Barb's Beach Runner party. Steve told me that you are on the 21-week training program right now. Are you training for a specific race? I've signed up for the SF Marathon and debating on signing up with the "Sole Runners" again this season. I see that we run about the same pace. Just wondering what your plan is.
Hope to hear from you soon!!

Thank you very much for the nice comments. This really keeps me encourage. Thank you for all your support. Pasadena here I come... ;->
Sad to say this but it looks like I will not do the Catalina Marathon. I did not prepare myself for this race. It is crazy expensive with the boat ride, registration, and hotel. I think I'm going to do the Pasadena Marathon this year and maybe do the LA Marathon again. I really feel sad about this. I see you Saturday.
See you soon hun & Happy Valentine's Day:)
See you the following Saturday:-)
I hope your Thanksgiving was lovely & full of yummy food:)
See you Saturday morning....
