Pictures: So Cal Half-Marathon (1/10/09)

Giant kudos to my gal Sara (1:38:XX) and to fellow blogger Danica (1:48:XX) for PR-ing in a major way this morning at the Southern California Half Marathon...you guys made me very proud!

In short, it was a warm and windy day for a race - but a great day nonetheless 'crewing' for my gal and meeting up with fellow bloggers and Runner's World forumites (why didn't I run this again?!).

Here's a little sampling of the day - enjoy:


Runners toeing the line.


Me w/ blogger extraordinaire - Danica.


Forum ringleader and all-around great guy, Charlie (finished sub-1:25!)


Sara kickin' some serious asphalt.


Runners negotiating the twists of the bike path.


Leader and eventual winner of the race.


Me and the Runner's World gang.

Very cool!! I am hoping for a warm sunny day in Arizona next weekend...I am sooo over the winter. I like about one day of winter every year and the rest summer =).

So cool that the girls were able to PR!

I was over in Newbury Park at the Boney Mountain 21K volunteering. It was a windy one way over there too.
