As I mentioned before, the Sole Runners are officially on a short hiatus between the winter and spring training sessions so a much smaller group of runners are showing up to these mid-season runs.
Apparently, the intertidal saltmarsh vegetation provides critical breeding habitats for many endangered bird species and is also home to the California Least Tern. We saw a couple bird watchers out with their tripods and equipment.
I was really proud of my friend, Brisa. I made it clear that there was no pressure to keep up with the group but she was a real trooper and ran a lot more than I'd expected. I think she's well on her way to becoming a runner. ::grins::
After we worked up an appetite on our run, we stopped by the Harbor House Café for some breakfast.
Very Cool! Sounds like you had a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI first moved to OC in the late 70's to go to college. I've driven past the Harbor House Cafe for years, but have never stopped! Egad!
ReplyDeleteThe breakfast was tasty. The place is really popular - we had to wait awhile before we were seated.
