San Francisco is a neat city
This morning the team planned on meeting at the coach's place which is extremely close to Golden Gate Park. I made the idiot mistake of choosing to ride with a younger teammate and we promptly lost the trail upon entering The City. Being lost in downtown San Fran is neat and exciting.
Golden Gate Park is a fantastic place to run. USF's home course is in the park along with a herd of buffalo, many Tai Chi groups, a lot of bikers and a plethora of running clubs/groups. The park consists of mostly rolling hills and both asphalt and hard-pack trails.
The legs are tired needless to say. 2-a-day practice seems to have the same effect on me as having my calves bitten off by a smaller Great White Shark.
The team knocked off 3 2 mile loop-repeats of a significant portion of USF's course, which we run on in a few weeks.
