Hmmm...July...

What to say about July? Hmmm. I think this group of road signs sums it up. Oh well....

I did do something fun that was also kind of awful. I ran the Rock to Pier 10k in Morro Bay again this year, which I love.

And I got the whole fam, plus my pal Olivia and her fam to come. That was the super fun part

It's a very popular race.

Here's Karen and Gita. They look like they're having a GREAT time!

Here Olivia and I are near the end. I didn't tell anyone at the time, but I knew I'd screwed up my left calf bad! It was my own fault for trying to show off and run back and forth between Olivia and Karen/Gita. I ran too fast on the beach and it just shreded my calf. It didn't rupture until a few days later when I was teaching my water aerobics class and doing plyometrics in the shallow end. After that, it was several weeks on crutches, and two months of therapy and I'm only no doing 4 and 5 miles, BARELY. So this was a super fun day, but ended up costing me dearly.

I always like to walk back from Cayucus and the familycame with me even though there was much whining toward the end. Gita has always loved to pick up squishy sea creatures ever since she was little. No idea what this thing is she's holding. And no, it's not a rock, it was a squishy sea thing.

My dogs came too, but my photos of them are at work.

And this was July 4. I was in Cotati again with Andrea. Trinity is showing her independent spirit here!
