Beautiful weather in San Francisco. Perfect for hill repeats up and down California Street.
This week has been pretty mellow so far. I have a race this weekend, the inaugural Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon in San Francisco. Hoping to meet some twitter friends at the expo on Friday and then run on Sunday with this:
I’ll be running this weekend’s Half Marathon with a GoPro camera— route includes trip across the Golden Gate Bridge.
That’s right. If you see a guy on race day with a GoPro attached, waive smile and come say hi. You may be on camera and turn into a YouTube sensation resulting in sponsorship and bags of money. Well, THAT or you can say “that’s me!” when I share it on the blog. One of those two things probably. Here is my #RnRSF Preview Post.
I’ve also been enjoying time with The First Lady. She is walking around all the time now and keeping me moving when it’s play time. Words are coming out quicker and faster and soon enough she’ll be giving me pep talks before race day.
Showing some love to Grandma’s cat.
Having some fun with tupperware (and possibly stretching?)
I guess it runs in the family… Get it? See what I did there?
That’s it for today. Just wanted to drop a quick line and share some fun photos.
Hope that your training and/or running has been going well. With Spring already here it might be time to show off how your Winter training has been going.

Also tomorrow is Playlist Thursday, any suggestions for a theme?
How has your week been so far?
Any races coming up?

Isn’t that going to be uncomfortable to run with. I see a lot of runners who have Go pros, they strap it on their chest.
My husband has the Contour GPS. He ran a race with it attached to his cap. He got that because of the compact and minimal design, great for clipping on his cap and helmet when biking/snowboarding.
It was ok. It was my first run with a head strap. I’m going to try the chest harness today. I’ll see which feels better and shoots nicer.
What a cutie pie!.. the first lady that is ;) I can’t wait for RNR Vegas, but that’s not until Nov..whomp whomp whomp..Divas half in Myrtle beach is next for me – girls trip!!
Vegas and a girl’s trip to MB? Dang, I need to race with you more.
She’s such a doll – but I think you already know that. I’ll be doing my first ever 10k this weekend. I’ve never raced that distance. Not really been training for it, so just planning to enjoy it.
Have fun with it! I’ve done a few 10ks and it’s nice to put some speed on the legs over a solid distance.
San Francisco looks like it would be an awesome place to run! :)
It is! Perfect weather most of the time and it’s never extreme conditions one way or the other.
Can’t wait to see the GoPro footage! I’ve heard that camera is pretty awesome. Enjoy your run!
It’s been fun. I’ve been doing a few test runs with it to see what works out best.
she’s such a cutie pie!!
Thanks. I’ve been running a lot and the GoPro takes off like 10 pounds… oh wait, you meant her.
I love it when you share pics of your little one! She is the sweetest thing ever :)
Workouts have been good. My Dad FUlippin’ killed me in yesterday’s TKD class. I’m still recuperating! No lie!
Have a good night :)
Thanks. Pops knows what he’s doing. Glad things are going well. See you in a month! Crazy, huh?
Adore the pic of lil lady and the kitty! So cute!
Luckily, the cat plays nice.
AH HA HA HA HA!!!! It does run in the family and I totally saw what you did there… And I totally laughed out loud! You’re such a great role model! :)
Thanks… it amazes me that I will have so much influence (good or bad) on her as she grows up. Trying to do my best.
We almost bought one of those for the cruise. Didn’t to save the money but now I’m wishing I would have because how fun would that be to run with for Big Sur? Can’t wait to see your video!
Hey!
I spoke to the wifey and I hope I see you out there! I am going to be slower moving this year (sick and slower than usual) so I may not see you on the course like last year but I will be cheering you on mentally! Good luck and have fun w/ the GoPro–so fun!
sounds like a plan… keep an eye out for the GoPro on my head. I’ll be in an orange shirt (most likely). Would be cool to meet up. Wifey should be out there cheering as well.
