Didn't make it out again last night. Meetings went until about 7 and then we walked about 4 miles around the wharf. We did eat at a nice seafood place (Pier Market). I had some yummy mussels and salmon and other varieties of seafood. This morning I ran with a co-worker down to the wharf and along it for a while. We ended up covering 6.5 miles in 53 minutes (8 min pace) counting stops at intersections. Easy pace, and it felt great. My leg (knee) was pretty sore after walking around so much on it last night. It did loosen up and get better as the run went on, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better long term. Tomorrow is a longer run out to the Golden Gate Bridge and back by myself. I figure it will be 12 miles or so. I am excited. It looks like we might hit a game tonight. PM: Didn't make it out to do a run as we went to the Cubs/Giants game. Pretty good game. They blew it in the 9th inning. I did make the mistake of eating garlic frys. Tasty going down, but made me feel awful after and all night/morning. Fun stuff. Funny story - After the game, we were walking back to the car when a bicycle gang cruised by. The leader was riding this cruiser style bike and was rapping into a PA system. He had the sweetest lights and accessories on the bike. I don't remember what he said exactly during his rap, but it was basically a play by play of what he was doing. The girls in the gang were following along behind thinking they were hot stuff. Not long after that, we watched a jeep pull into the bus lane and hit the brakes. Just as he realized that he was stuck in that lane (small curb on both sides), a bus came flying up behind him. We were ready for a spectacular crash, but the jeep hit the gas and sped down the street. Luckily no cars were coming the other direction as he flew through the red light. Good entertainment.
