When I used to live in Southern California (1980 - 1993), I spent a lot of time doing long bike rides with my club through many of the hills in and around Pasadena, so I have a good idea of some of the terrain you covered....VERY impressive! Well done!Bill Finehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16861030282732466646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822096984973552912.post-21358161680656521562013-02-19T06:34:23.801-08:002013-02-19T06:34:23.801-08:00Thank You Megan!

It is not an easy course but it's very scenic and not very big in my opinion. I might just do it again next year since I know what to expect now :)Boston Bound Brunettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617670777384752810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822096984973552912.post-9060573647066671822013-02-19T06:32:27.163-08:002013-02-19T06:32:27.163-08:00Thank You Abbi!

There were lots of out and backs on the course but I didn't mind it.

Even Deena Kastor commented about the hills on the course so I don't feel so bad :) I haven't thought about a San Diego race since I would have to get a hotel and they are pricey.
