Running

My temperature threshold for running outdoors is 50 degrees. Any colder than that and it's just no fun. Back in Ann Arbor, that ruled out almost every day from sometime in October until sometime in April. Here in San Francisco, almost every day is above my threshold. Today was one of those days.

This is the third day I've gone running since we moved to San Francisco. I loved running through the cute little hilly neighborhoods in Berkeley, getting high enough to get a view of the whole bay. But running here isn't terrible at all. I head straight for Golden Gate Park, a block away, and wind my way down to the ocean and run along that for a while. Every time I emerge from the park and see the ocean, I'm totally amazed. I can't believe that I actually live here!

Here's a map of my run today, which was exactly 4.5 miles.
