The Queen runs in Long Beach

Last Sunday, I ran the Long Beach half marathon. It was a lovely day for running, cool and hazy. I was up, hydrated and jogging along before I even knew what was happening. It was a good time, but I missed my usual running buddies. I did, as you can see below, have plenty of other fellow joggers.


I make better time with my usual companions in sweat. (Well, probably training up for these things might help.) My time was roughly 2 hours, 15 minutes -- not quite as good as when I have to chase E.
