I started at Oceanside Pier (since I live in the area) around 9:30 am and went down the coast! I wish I started a little earlier since it got hotter than I expected. My first stop was in Cardiff where I used the public restroom and refilled my bottles up at the public water fountain. I only filled my bottles once at that location. I continued and went up the Torrey Pines hill (I despise how long and steady this hill is!!). I was able to get away with not stopping at any stoplights until I got to La Jolla where it got pretty busy and I had to stop and wait for one light. I was happy with how I fueled, I had three gels and brought a mixed assortment of different nuts/dried fruit. I felt great for the most part, the balls of my feet hurt the most. I was happy to reach Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach where a family member picked me up once I finished. Overall, had a lot of fun with beautiful views!
