8.4 miles at 7:49 AP.  It seems easier to breath with this humidity.  Or is it the elevation change?  whatever it is I feel better here.  Maybe its because I am at the Happiest Place on earth.  I ran this run at 7:01 am.  Ran the same route -- almost as Saturday.  Got to run thru the park again.  They even let runners run thru while guests of the park stood in the bag check lines.  I felt like an honored guest as a runner.  Got lots of stares.  Like who runs when they are on vacation?  seriously.  It had just rained quite a bit so all the pathways, walkways etc...were drenched.  Just a slight mist in the air.  Feels great because the air is warm.  Got back and two of my kids were still in deep sleep so went upstairs to the 5 th floor and did a hillwork (grades of 2.5 to 7%)  out on the TM for 1.6 miles AP 8:57 to make an even 10 miles.  It was a nice cooldown yet I perspired greatly without ventilation in a hotel room made into a small fitness center.   So love the outdoors better.  Wish I could run out here everyday.  Wish I had time for a beach run.  My sister-in-law actually was at Long Beach watching her sister-in-law run the half marathon yesterday.  She said it was crazy busy with traffic because there were 20,000 runners!!   BTW  our car broke down  : (

Broken car on vacation--dang! Is it majorly broken or minorly broken? Cool that you got to run through the line! I betcha that sea level air is probably nice!

Allie- NO just get to spend more money ($289!!!!!!) for a distributor cap, spark plugs and towing. funny we took our smaller car to save on gas $$ and then ended spending more...but we were told they were (the parts changed) were on their last leg. April--- the humid air will be missed as I start my air sucking runs in Utah later this week in the cold air!!!

We just spent the 13th to the 15th in Disney Land. I must admit that the World of Color was quite amazing. If you get a chance the run from Huntington to NewPort and back is quite worth it. I did all my walking in the park in my Vibrams (made for some fun conversation with complete strangers).

unfortunately our car was in the shop so we never made it to the beach and there was never any "beach" weather. The sun came out maybe three times our whole trip. Long beach to Huntington can go on and on. Wish I had more time. I have only seen about three other runners while out here.
