Cheryl and I spent the weekend in San Diego. On Saturday, we went to the Hot Chocolate 15K package pickup and then explored the Gas Lamp Quarter of downtown San Diego.
We stopped at Cafe Sevilla for sangria and tapas on their outside patio.
We were back in our room on the 15th floor of the Omni before dark. Our room overlooked the Gas Lamp Quarter and we watch the lights turn on and the traffic get worse and worse.
The following morning, it was just a short walk to the Hot Chocolate 15K starting line:
There we found our corral.
With a few other people.
The finisher's prize was full of Chocolate-y goodness!
Time to say good-bye to San Diego.
By mile 2, Cheryl said, "This run is horrible!"... by at the end of the race, she said "I didn't like that one very much"... on the way home, she said, "That was FUN! Let's do another destination run!" Gotta love her short term memory... she went from HORRIBLE to FUN in less than three hours, hahaha!
My results:
Time: 1:27:17, pace 9:21
Place 50-54: 29/197
Place women: 474/2575
Cheryl's results:
Time: 1:27:37, pace 9:23
Place 20-24: 48/167
Place women: 488/2575
It's a PR for both of us, since neither of us has ever run a 15K before.
Have a great weekend!
hahaha Yes, you gotta love a short attention span. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Your world and mine are definitely two different places.
