The camera died, so Chris took a pic with his iPhone after the raceBright & early this morning I ran a 5k in Carpenteria (a small beach community just south of Santa Barbara). The race had hills, trails, and it was raining! It was a cool, breezy & hazy morning-which was actually ideal. I haven't ran on any "trail" routes before, and the rocks were a bit tricky! But it was on a GORGEOUS trail on the bluffs right next to the ocean. Besides being beat by 4oyr old women (no offense to any 40+ it's just I feel I should be able to keep up!)the race was good. It has been almost a year since my last race, so it felt good to be back.
Next is a 10miler in Santa Barbara in April. Im looking forward to DYING in that race ;). Oh wait, Im training for a half marathon aren't I? Dang. Im toast.

You Rock Mari! And with a bod like that I'm never standing next to you again. ;)
Good job Mari, even if an old lady 40 year old beat you!
Woohoo! I am starting to run too. Gotta lose some pounds! :) Way to go!
A) you are hot.
B) you are crazy. I have never understood why on earth anyone actually ENJOYS running. But then again I am about 15 lbs overweight and seriously out of shape. hehehe
good job!
Mari you inspire me. Good for you. And Trev tells me he thinks it's your hubby's birthday today, so wish him a good one for us if it is.
