Man, two weeks without the kids has sure been different. They are with their mom for a summer break. Lots of time to work and run!

Long overnight in Orange County, CA.  I did two hours of surf lessons at Huntington Beach Surf School and then a really nice long run down Huntington, Newport and Balboa Beaches.  I felt much better today after some real sleep and for the first time in three weeks did not have the tightness in the upper hip muscle.  This seems to be working out!

Easy 7:43 pace and way stoked about how well this run went!
