Malibu International Half Marathon, November 15, 2009
Running this half marathon was a spontaneous decision since I hadn't trained for it. My running buddies and I ran it as a "training" run for a half marathon in January. The route along the Pacific Coast Highway was gorgeous - can't beat running along the ocean - and the day was spectacular. I finished in just under 3 hours which surprised me considering I hadn't run more than 7 miles in the last few months. I truly appreciate my friends who support and encourage me through my aches and pains and self-doubts!
I also posted audio tweets along the way at http://www.utterli.com/DeniseWakeman/And I called in a quick report to Shirley Jahad at KPCC since they were one of the race sponsors.

Saturday run in San Pedro with a side trip to the Korean Friendship Bell
After 5 miles along the coast I was tired so a running buddy and I took a walk up the hill from our route to catch the view from the bluff. The site originally housed a big canon (WWII) to protect the L.A. Harbor. Now it's the home of the gorgeous Korean Friendship Bell at Angel's Gate.
Pt. Fermin in San Pedro, CA

Sunday Run from Santa Monica to Venice Beach
A gorgeous morning for a run from Santa Monica, along Ocean Park down to the boardwalk to Venice Beach. Surprisingly warm for a November morning. I haven't been running much in the past few weeks so this 7.5 mile run was tough and everything ached by the time I got back to the car. It's time to get serious now since I've signed up to do a half marathon in January!

Hey @loubortone - name this street - these pics are for you!
Wednesday evening run in Hollywood. First 2 miles up a long, gradual hill. Coming down is so much more fun.
