Elite Jogging For Dummies

In Los Angeles.  Beautiful morning. Staying in the Larchmont neighborhood with an old friend. I weaved around the neighborhood, ran up to Melrose and south to Rossmore, and through Hancock Park.  Fancy houses, let me tell you, very fancy.  In fact, much much too fancy. 

In Ojai, CA.  Drove up on Sunday and stayed the night. I ran through an equestrian park and hundreds of acres of orange groves.  The last couple of miles of the run were along the walking path that borders the town. It was 65 degrees. Top notch.

It was pretty wet this morning, nice mix of rain and snow.  Quite

different from running in Ojai, and not necessarily better.  I ran a

neighborhood loop; it was ok, but I feel like I'm sort of missing having

the U/City Creek/Memory Grove nearby.  Those big, car-free landmarks

help keep the runs interesting.

From Diva's, out and back with a group of 4.

From 9th and 9th with a group of 4, including a pal from Boise.

From Diva's, a nice loop through Holladay. Great temperature, pretty morning.
