Lytton Springs to Healdburg to Dry Creek triangle

April 10, 2016 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
Didn't sleep in much. CA was up early, with some coughing. I figured I'd get some miles in, since I wasn't too sore.

Ran from our host's house, down Lytton Springs, east to 101. I then realized I could run the frontage south into Healdsburg to Dry Creek, and back, which is what I did.

REALLY focused on the quick turnover that Krazy Karl and Terranova schooled me with yesterday. Otherwise, big focus on "The Triad" and with knees out and pelvis left. Felt pretty good, albeit TIRED. More tired than I realized. Wore the old adidas, which didn't provide much cushion.

Packed up after the run, then met Callie's mom at the coffee shop in H-Burg. After a quick chat with Matt and Kim Keyes, we decided to hit up Parish for breakfast after a short wait. Good coffee, benieghts, and chow!

Post-coffee...milled around with Callie's mom a bit. Unfortuantely, she was...kind of a downer! Just was stressed out and not positive about being there, really at all. For better or worse, she didn't want to go to the wine tasting, so we parted ways at 11ish, with Charlotte going south to visit a friend in Napa. We stopped into HRC (I got some sunglasses and chatted with Billy Yang and Dave Daley), the we busted out of town!

The weather...was crap most of the day! It was misting on the run, then raining before breakfast. It had stopped, but remained cold and overcast, so it was an easy decision to head out.

Drove NW through Boonville to Mendocino! There we both did some work in a coffee shop (I got 90% of my coaching done), then we headed north for an awesome meal in Fort Bragg at this "Mayan Fusion" restaurant. REALLY good. Then, we kept driving!

It's too bad we were so short on time. The far northern CA 1 is amazing. But we had to get to the Redwoods by dark, and just barely did. We drove to the Ave of the Giants and found a place under a big redwood to park and set-up camp!

In bed before 10, but not before a nice walk through the redwoods on a backroad, off the Avenue. GOOD DAY.
