Five miles in the early AM with these lovely ladies, then another five trail miles with my friend Elyse. A yummy breakfast at the Flower Farm after. Elyse and I were gifted with a couple of deer at the beginning of our run. One ended up crossing right in front of us.

Sacramento Running Tours hosted a “Lady Bird” run that takes you to different spots where the movie “Lady Bird ” was filmed. We ran a total of four miles on a perfect early Spring day. As we were getting ready to begin, we were gathered in front of a coffee shop (not related to the movie). […]

One of my favorite runs! 10 trail miles, then breakfast after at the Flower Farm…
I love running early in the morning with friends. We could not catch a good shot, but we came across three coyotes who had cornered a hare. Our disturbance gave the hare enough time to run away. Also, we saw a pheasant in a tree!

This neighborhood has a covenant where if you choose to live here you mush decorate your house and yard for Christmas! Gloria bought us […]

Starts at the Magnolia Ranch trailhead, located between the towns of Cool and Coloma. This is a 9.5 mile route that goes out to the […]

Early morning after a terrible night’s sleep. So nervous and excited for the longest run of my life! Gloria and Melissa dropped Sally and I off at the start line, then they drove to Mile 21, where our run club was hosting one of the aid stations. Porte-Potties at the start line as far as […]
