Sun This Week!!

Told you this week would be pictures from warmer climates...

This is the view from the sculpture garden at the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla, CA.

Needless to say there were plenty of sunshine, palm trees and sandy beaches...














While JL was icing her knee AGAIN...















Mike was getting a pedicure and checking up on the local culture!














Just kidding, JL was taking this picture from a pedicure chair of her own. It was a great time in San Diego (actually Oceanside). Kele and Danielle were great hosts! They gave the full tour up and down the coast, some excellent Sushi as well as a classic '80s cover band (and it was classic!) Some old Vashon Island friends came down from Redondo Beach (where they live now) and gave us all the Mexico tour -- Puerto Nuevo for some of the local specialty, Grilled Lobster!

Oh yeah, some miles were logged as well. Tuesday was a travel day with a workout planned, but after a 6 hour delay at Seatac courtesy of Alaska Airlines, the workout did not happen. Hopefully this will not be the case on race weekend!! Wednesday and Thursday were 40 minute runs early morning (did I mention on the beach?!) Friday rest day and trip to Mexico. Saturday was an 80 minute run and about 8.5 miles. This was the first Saturday run missed with the team, but it was nice to get it done in sunny California. Am I rubbing this in?
