The long run is one of our key weekly events. I loved running in the Carmel area and was reminded of that this weekend. I recall a race at Nisene Marks , 12k, which I had to cross a creek twice! The next day, I ran 90 minutes in Pacific Grove along the coast. The fog was thick and the sea was loud. What a great run.
