		<description><![CDATA[Time again for the Dirt Inspires Half Marathon in Nisene, a route consisting of some of my favorite trails. Ready to race? Well, first we have to primp in the parking lot: And now we&#8217;re ready!  Good thing we&#8217;re all here at the starting line now. Wait, we need one with Michelle: Ok go!

That&#8217;s all you need! The trail takes you around by the river; quite lovely on this diffused lighted morning. At about mile three it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Love the morning fog for riding, though it was heavy enough to make dots on my glasses. Instead of wearing a watch I have taken to setting the timer on my phone for the turnaround time; and instead of riding a lot I have more recently been doing, let&#8217;s just say, &#8220;other things&#8221;. But I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once again I was one of the lucky 15,000 racers to participate in the Wharf to Wharf race (from Santa Cruz Wharf to Capitola Wharf). We had a perfectly overcast-and-neither-hot-nor-cold weather pattern to enjoy as our little &#8220;team&#8221; assembled by the boardwalk. By the way, the Wharf to Wharf is the race equivalent of seeing [...]]]></description>

Our halfway point is Berry Falls, with lots [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The idea behind this run was to do the last 4 miles of the route we took for the Dirt Inspires 8 Miler. Sherri hadn&#8217;t seen it, and I was happy to revisit. We had the route map from the race, water and my memory. It was quite a lot of fun, and we enjoyed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Boy, that was fun. I haven&#8217;t been running much so last week I did a practice 8 mile run which went well, so it was a &#8220;go&#8221;. Of course the route I went last week was a gentle grade up and back and the route of this particular event has more dramatic topography, if you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OK, so I signed up for the 50k run, my first Ultra-marathon. This is a very challenging course with 4500 ft elevation gain overall, or something like that. I&#8217;d been fighting chronic fatigue symptoms for the past two weeks, but I wanted to attempt the distance anyway, and besides, I&#8217;d gotten my friends to run [...]]]></description>

The Apples Beautiful Gravenstein apples from the tree. We&#8217;ve set the scene and are ready to bake. Krista peels them while I make the crust, narrating [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s maybe 4-6 miles, not too long! We started at 6am and already we were comfortable in short [...]]]></description>
