So spoiled in the Bay.

So week 2 is complete.  I've logged 17.45 miles so far.  But even better is that I've met some inspiring people.  'Honorees' are those afflicted with blood cancer and are on remission and join us in our training sessions.  One of the honorees told me that we could dedicate a coached run to Jaden.  Cool!

So in these 2 weeks I realize there are really lovely places out here in the bay where crazy chipper runners who run for fun lurk.  And I've never been.  Just in these few training sessions, I've been to Berkeley Marina, I ran the Pier and Embarcadero, San Leandro Marina, Kezar stadium and the Marina Green.  Really beautiful spots. 

My body is paying for it though.  My quads and hams are still in pain.  I'm guilty though.  The soreness is mainly from a capoiera class I took on Wed.  But running isn't helping much.  I had a heart-to-heart with my body and we decided I won't overdue it.  I have a tendency to go a little gung-ho-crazy sometimes when I'm inspired and motivated.  So ya, gonna slow my roll here while the physical me recuperates. 

I'm at 6% of my fundraising goal now.  I have til Sept23 I think.  So keep the donations coming!  Even $5 helps and you don't have to put the amount you fronted on my fundraising page.  It can be your little secret. 

Stay posted.  Week 3 is coming up and the miles are starting to increase, woohoo!  Looking forward to checking out more lovely places here in the Bay Area.
