Ortega Recap - 5 mi

So I have decided I have a few preferred distances - 5k, because it's easy and they usually give you beer at the end of good ones, and Half Marathon, because they give you medals and you go home knowing you pushed yourself hard all morning. But my little 5 mile Ortega River Run was just fantastic! The neighborhood is gorgeous (I call these "Real Estate Runs", where you are checking out all the houses), with the right amount of hills and a view of the river (in between mansions, of course), and even has two bridges for those of you who just have to have some challenge. 1:04:27 beat my projected time of 1:07.

And I even made it into the paper...
