Bodega Bay Long Run
Packed up the family and headed out for a few days of rest and relaxation at Bodega Bay. We stayed at a new place, outside of town about 4 or 5 miles - called Ocean Escapes. Absolutely an awesome place, two side by side little cabins, on 12 acres overlooking the ocean, with a private beach. Run was "picture perfect", 50 degrees, some wind, but overall great conditions. Went from our cabin, down to the beach, then back up and out the private roadway, all the way to Highway 1. Followed Hwy 1 about a 1/2 mile to the east, and then headed north to the Town of Bodega (Not Bodega Bay). A very, very charming town, with a couple of stores, a beautiful church, and some very cute homes. Once at Bodega, bought a new bottle of water, had a gel and continued my journey back to our cabin.
This is a shot of the fading afternoon sun Friday afternoon.
A little different view of Bodega Bay:
Looking down at our private beach - this was also a great hill workout!!!
Down on the Beach - running on the beach is Awesome!!
Some of the treasures that awaited me in the tide pools...

A very quaint cemetery along the highway to the town of Bodega.
Two shots of a very photogenic church in the Town of Bodega.
Overall run was around 10.5 miles, with about 1600 feet of climbing.
