I'm back to running, getting ready for the next Dallas White Rock Marathon this December.  More on that later.

But first, before I forget, I had a great hill run that I want to tell others about.

Yesterday, another sun colleague, Dave Smith, and I wanted a hill workout while traveling in the San Jose area.  Over a year ago, another Sun colleague, Derrick Harcey, had run the hills in the East Bay in Pleasanton, CA.  If you are out in the East Bay and looking for a great scenic workout, out in nature, away from the roads and traffic, you need to check out the Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park.

Due to the late start (6:30pm) we were only able to get a couple of miles in, but that couple of miles turned out being over a 1000 ft climb and back down.  Not the same as the hills in Dallas, maybe a 100 ft climb.
