Hiking the Bay Trail

We are so fortunate to live in the San Francisco Bay Area.  We can walk for miles and miles along the Bay Waterfront here in Berkeley, which Claudia and I did yesterday evening with our dogs Rio and Molly.  Photo credits go to Claudia and the iPhone 4S.

During my days with Team in Training famous coach and ultra marathon runner, Mama Lisa, taught me to make & use these warm up sleeves out of long socks.  These arm warmers provide warmth at the beginning of the run, are lightweight & easy to pull off & put in a belt or fanny pack then pull on during cool down.  Imagine my surprise when I watched Madonna's Live Facebook Chat Moderated by Jimmy Fallon, on March 24, 2012 and saw her wearing a similar fashion.
