Run for the Hungry


Michele and I ran together for the Run for the Hungry 10K on Thanksgiving morning. I met Michele when I joined the running group Organic Athlete. She’s a long-time runner, off and on. She was a good motivator (especially on the hills, well, over a bridge or two.) This being my first race, I opted to be chipped timed. Here is the official result: FINISH: 1:04:24 pace: 10:22



The race started at the Embarcadero Marina Park South directly behind the San Diego Convention Center. From the top of the convention center, you can see the start of the race banner and the seaport nearby. Our small fix of fall foliage is in the foreground. I don’t know the names of many trees here, but usually one is in bloom or in color some month of the year.
