Today I had a very good lunch at Chevys FreshMex Restaurant. I haven’t had a good fajita in a while and they make them pretty good at Chevys – the chicken was so tasty! The big lunch powered me on a 72 minute run in Los Altos Hills this afternoon which went well.

Los Altos Hills Run
Yesterday I ran for 75 minutes with Hari at Los altos Hills. It was a great run! The Los Altos Hills City has an ordinance requiring cinder paths alongside the roads and open spaces for the many horse owners in the community. The result is a network of trails providing road-free running for miles. It’s…
Lunch, Movie, and Run!
Today was a really fun day. I had a great lunch at Milagros Restaurant in Redwood City. It was nice to eat outside in the shade on a hot day. I had fish tacos for the entree, the appetizers were great, and the dessert was very tasty. I never realized how nice the new Redwood…
Helicopter Tour
Yesterday I went on a helicopter tour of the San Francisco bay. It was absolutely awesome! I have never been in a helicopter so it was sweet from the beginning. The weather was idyllic with clear blue skies and late afternoon sunshine. There were streams of fog flowing over the hills, but the Golden Gate…

Short Update
Not much new to report today. My hair was starting to get a little wild so I got a haircut. The short cut feels much better in the hotter weather. I then went to Arrillaga gym and worked back muscles, followed by the second half of the Spurs-Cavs game three of the NBA finals. Both…
El Corte de Madera Run
Another sweet trail run at El Corte de Madera Creek Open Space Preserve. I basically did the same loop as last time except I added the Steam Donkey Trail, which is a steep section of trail near the end of the run. It was a good challenge and I enjoyed the new section of trail….

Huddart Park Run
Photo from Bay Area Hiker Website. Another awesome run in the foothills today – this time at Huddart County Park. I ran a great loop from the main parking area up to Skyline Blvd. and back down. The loop was basically the Crystal Springs Trail up to Skyline and the Chinquapin/Dean Trails down. I added…
