On the Road Again

My holiday and driving buddy (with the lone cyprus, Monteray's famed tree off highway 17)

The time has come for another road trip, this time north to south, to be with my family for the holidays. Ed's coming along for the ride, which should make it a lot nicer. We'll have a full house with 4 guests plus our five person family (and an additional 4 for dinner tomorrow) which should be fun, and hopefully not too stressful!

I ended up taking this week off from running since my leg was (is) doing a weird thing of feeling sort of tingly and a bit numb on the top of the foot. My kneecap has also been popping out of place a bit. Not sure what's going on here.... I'm doing the 10k and 5k thanksgiving morning, so hopefully my body is up for that! Looking forward to hopefully seeing some OCTR running people while I'm home and at least getting in some nice hikes if running doesn't seem to be happening beyond the race. There are 7 of our 9 family/guests doing at least one of the races, so it should be great. My dad, Ed, and I are signed up for both, but we'll see how that pans out. My dad's knee has been bugging him lately, so none of us (besides Ed) are in great condition right now. It should be a fun day regardless :D

I'm looking forward to lots of nice relaxing time (hopefully I won't spend too much time doing work) enjoying socal and being with my wonderful family. Pictures will be taken, of course, and I'll possibly be checking in over the break. Otherwise, see you guys sunday!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving :D
