Yeah!!! I did my last double deca walks until the BIG event. This weekend was good. We joined Faylene and Tina (other 3-Dayers) in Pacifica on Saturday to do an 18 miler. The morning started out quite cool and foggy, warmed in the afternoon and then the fog rolled back in by the end. The biggest problem I had was sore arches.

On Sunday my mom and I did a 20 mile hike in San Francisco. We started at Ocean Beach, went through Golden Gate park, across the city for lunch at Ghiradelli Square. We met Rachael and Gene for lunch which was a nice break. We then headed along the Embarcadero, up over Nob Hill, and back to the Beach.

My arches hurt the entire day on Sunday. Not sure what is going on, I am hoping some new shoes may help the situation. Today I have a few sore muscles but feel good overall.

I am getting so pumped and psyched for the 3-DAY can't wait the next 18 days!!
