Kindra and I started a tradition last year of racing every year at the Balboa Park 3 mile/8 mile race in early August. This year Bill and Karen came too and it was a family event. Due to my spider bite incident I decided to run the 3 mile course with all of them because I hadn't put in enough distance training. (The 8 mile course is so awesome and I recommend it to everyone because you hit almost every part of Balboa Park. You run in open space, over the main bridge, by the 163 freeway, through the front part of the zoo, and by all the museums). We had a lot of fun at the race. I followed the leaders in front of me in the wrong direction (memories of doing this in High School with McDonough at Central Park in Santa Clara) but still had a great race. Kindra took over 4 minutes off her time from the year before and looked super strong. Bill and Karen came in about four minutes after Kindra and looked great for their first race in awhile. Amir came and snapped some photos. A great Saturdaya morning for everyone!
