ummm... so i think tina is going to blog the minutes of yesterday, for you avid fans of ours who want to know where we pee and how often, which means i am going to recount a stream of conciousness of general impressions:
finally leave the city at 1:00pm
(after learning from two british boys at breakfast- who don't play soccer?- that there is a law in their town still in the books from the old days that at a certain time of day if you catch a welsh man within the city walls you can legally kill him with a crossbow. not a regular bow and arrow mind you. solomente a crossbow. wow.)
kelly green golden gate bridge
gorgeous goodbye views of vancouver
panniers create terrifying speed wobbles
marine drive = totally scary and totally sweet views
the ferry ride = first harry potter death and quick nap
post ferry hill was like riding heavy bikes up everest (holy shit i can't believe my legs did that)
my crotch hurts a bit
my back hurts the most? (what's up with that?!)
somebody at our campsite had a bass guitar and sent us to sleep with "sweet chid o mine"
today we have twice as many miles to cover and three times as many ugly hills... it's a race to a ferry as well.
i'm stoked about how positive i am this is going to whip me into the best shape of my life in no time. faster than that wussy pct.
you are all still jealous.
i miss everyone!
till next time...

This is very cool. First time I have ever commented on a blog. Good decision on passing up the doobie. Keep it up.
Elke, Allie, and I went running first thing this morning in Garvin Brown dog park and it made me think of our morning beach runs on Isle of Palms, Mandy. It was hot and humid. No doubt it is more temperate where you all are. Good luck and strong vibes.
Love Joey
Thanks joey!
I miss you guys... and I know those beach runs helped my legs prepare (somewhat) for this ride. Keep posting! It's fun to read peoples responses.
And thanks for the vibes...
Love,
your wandering daughter
