La Jolla Half Marathon Celebrates Boston “Sweet Caroline” VIDEO #bostonstrong

mizuno running shoes half marathon

The La Jolla Half Marathon was on Sunday, and I am still recovering. 13.1 miles along the Southern California coastline was gorgeous but tough!

Joe for The Marathon Show put together this video to show our support for Boston! We as runners hold a certain type of brotherhood, and we all send our love and prayers to the city.

You may even catch a very tired pinup in there somewhere. Just look close enough.

See Bee Run: La Jolla Half Marathon SUNDAY 4/28/2013

mizuno running shoes half marathon

It’s running season, so that means that there will be a race every weekend here in SoCal… somewhere near you. This weekend one will be in La Jolla. The La Jolla Half Marathon is the middle oreo filling for the Half Marathon Triple Crown bookended by the Carlsbad Half Marathon in January and the American’s Finest City Half in August. It begins in Del Mar around 7:30 AM and ends at La Jolla Cove at around 10:30AM.

This pinup will be running, walking, huffing and puffing her way through the 13.1 miles, and Torrey Pines *omg is that a HILL?* in search for my first Triple Crown accomplishment. Yeah I’ve done the Oceanside Half Ironman, so this is a new challenge.

If you live in the area, please check out the La Jolla Half’s information page to see about road closures, and areas to avoid if you won’t be coming down to cheer people on. If you wanted to go hang in La Jolla on Sunday just for kicks be prepared for tons of people and even less parking that usual.

See you there!

Good morning little bees and pinups.

It’s race day, so that means I have been up since 4:30. Luckily I still get to have my cup of coffee before we take off.

If you are in San Diego north county, please be aware of the street closures, and how they might impact your plans. Or you could always come down to cheer on the 1,500 marathon runners and 8,500 half marathon runners. We’d love to have you there.

If you cannot make it to the race, you can always follow your favorite runner online. There are directions here.

Just please, if you see us making a beeline for the porta potty, let us use it first. We’ll really appreciate it.

WISH ME LUCK!!

Carlsbad Marathon & Half Marathon Jan 27 2013

carlsbad marathon

After months of training, and early (cold) mornings, it’s finally here. The Carlsbad Marathon and Half Marathon will begin Sunday morning.

For those who want to watch and sup support their neighbors, friends, and family, the full marathon begins at 6:15AM, and the half takes off in waves starting at 7:45. That is a crazy late start time IMO, but we will just have to deal with it.

Want to know if you can hop to Starbucks while waiting for your bff to come around your spot on the sidewalk? You can TRACK THEIR PROGRESS online with your smartphone or computer. Just type in their name or bib number. (This one works much better than the Ironman tracker. Imjustsaying.

If you head out tomorrow, you might even see me huffin’ and puffin’ along the coast :-)

Come down and cheer us all on!!!

Early Morning Run with the ILX

Dad bee with the Acura ILX after a morning run.  

 My most favorite thing to do in the morning, is go for a run with Dad Bee on the coast.  The earlier the better, that way I don’t have to deal with too much traffic or other people running/biking on the coast.  And the sunrises are great.

I took the ILX up to the beach and parked on the cliffs overlooking the waves.  Not a bad way to start my morning.  The ILX is lower than my SUV, so seeing over the guard rail was a little harder, but I won’t complain too much.

My new early morning life saver has to be this little button.  The seat warmer!!!  I have never had a luxury vehicle before, so it took me a minute to figure out what this did.  Let me tell you, this thing is the best on cold mornings for my tight legs and sore back.  It doesn’t get so hot for me to fall back to sleep, but it’s just warm enough to keep my legs from freezing up before my nice early sun free runs.

This could be you!

Acura has invited me to test the new ILX and share my honest thoughts through social media. I may receive product, access or content, but all commentary is my own.
