I told myself last year that I didn’t really want to run the Long Beach Half Marathon again, but changed my mind and decided to go for the Beach Cities Challenge one last time before I go after my Rock N Roll Heavy Metal Challenge in 2020. This is the third year I have run this course and it was still most enjoyable. Here are a few photos from this race.
In the end, I am glad I ran it again. This is part of my life-long fitness goal to be able to continue to do this delightfully challenging distance.
