The Smiling Runners of the BayTrailrunners 2018 Whiskey Hill Half/Marathon/50k

There's nothing quite like the first long run of newly-minted funemployment, and to my delight, the BayTrailrunners Whiskey Hill Half/Marathon/50k was in progress! Had I not been focused on making pancakes for the kids, I could have made the start line. Regardless, it meant lots of smiling faces to share my delicious home trails on a perfect early Fall morning. I got a few pics below...
