Surf City Marathon was on February 7, 2010. I headed up to my parents’ in Orange County the afternoon before to pick up my bib and goodies, and had the usual carb dinner, which consisted of pasta, meatballs, broccoli, and some bread. That Sunday morning, I woke up early and drove to my friend, Mimi’s place, in Huntington Beach to park. Her house was just a few blocks away. I was supposed to park in the garage, but someone had blocked off the driveway, so ended up parking on the street at a meter. So, needless to say, I got a parking ticket when I returned to my car after.
The course itself was ok. I feel like it just went back and forth on PCH. The most scenic part was probably the last stretch when we were right along the beach. I probably started a little slower than I usually do, but all in all, it wasn’t my best or worst time yet. Next up…San Diego Rock-N-Roll Marathon in June.
