Bay Breeze 5K

If doing a  5K (3.1 miles) as part of your training sounds fun, the Bay Breeze in San Leandro on Feb. 18 might be the ticket. It's on a Saturday, it's pretty close to home, and it sounds like a cool place to run. It falls just about the time on our training schedule when a 5K is recommended. The course is "flat and fast" (music to my ears), begins at the San Leandro Marina Park, continues into the Hayward Regional Shoreline Park, and hugs the shoreline for an out and back run that rarely strays more than a few feet from the water.  Look under "links" to go to the race site.
