Ever since I ran my marathon birthday – 26.2 miles on my 26.2th birthday – a few years ago, I’ve been running my age in miles for every birthday. Most recently, I turned 31, so I ran 31 miles around San Francisco.
Highlights this year:
- Ran the whole thing without looking at a map – it was cool to be able to get around my city
- Got to see some of my favorite parts of the city (Ferry Building, AT&T Park, , Dogpatch, Golden Gate Park, Ocean Beach, Cliff House, GG Bridge, Embarcadero)
- Visited a new (to me) place – the Labyrinth at Land’s End
- Ran despite the rain (which was pretty aggressive!)
Collage from the day. Top: me finishing at the Exploratorium, the Strava results of my run. Bottom: At the Labyrinth, at GG Bridge, another finishing photo.
Here’s a link to the Strava if you’re into that kind of thing
