Another year, another Bay to Breakers - and it was rad. Linzy and I decided to opt out of costumes this year - we've had three years in a row of mediocre last-minute costumes and, despite asking "what are we going to wear" for the last four-months - we came up empty handed.
We walked over to the race at 7:30. Bay to Breakers morning always entertains me - the whole city seems to wake up early (or still be up) in anticipation of the running, drinking, costumes (and un-costumes). Matt walked part way with me - he was part of a "yellow" clan with 80 other people who strategically hid kegs of beer around the city (my husband the runner - I'm so proud).
At the start - well, 5-blocks back from the start really, we dodged and threw tortillas in true Bay to Breakers style. When it was finally 8am and time to start, we moved an inch or so then stopped, started, stopped, started you get the picture) and finally ran.
The race was great - we finished in about an hour (into counting the 30-minutes it took to get to the starting line). We managed to dodge all the naked people - don't want any of "that" accidentally hitting us.
Finally, we finished the run with a B2B breakfast as it should be at Beach Challet. Yum!
Time to start planning a costume for next year.
