Took this on as part of my peak week training for Javelina. Started at Seal Beach Pier a little before 7 am after getting dropped off by a friend. Was a super foggy and humid day. Could hardly see the ocean while running through Bolsa Chica. I was grateful the lack of sun kept things cool but was pretty bored with nothing to look at. Was excited to finally hit some hills in Newport. Carried two handle bottles —topped off water in CDM and ate an uncrustable lol. Then stopped for the first refill in Crystal Cove. Had another stop for water and a bathroom along the beach in Dana Point. Had to detour around Doheny due to the Ohana music festival on the beach and hopped a fence. Took the last mile or so to San Clemente Pier on the beach due to the path being closed due to mudslides still. Couple of friends were waiting for me at the Pier. Then we headed to Gibroni’s for pizza after. Would love to try it again pushing the pace a bit more and try to get a clearer day. All in all a good time and want to see some more females go after this one.
