It was a beautiful morning that Sunday and I remember getting up earlier than usual to get to Campbell on time. I have been looking forward to this event for months now. The Jungle Run Half Marathon consists of a 13.1-mile run/walk that starts and finishes in Los Gatos at the Los Gatos High School Track. The course extends North through the streets of Los Gatos and onto the scenic Los Gatos Creek Trail at the Los Gatos Creek County Park in Campbell. The athletes have always enjoyed the creek-side views on their way back into Los Gatos and into breathtaking Vasona Park. After a small loop around Vasona Lake, we continued South on the Los Gatos Creek Trail into Old Town Los Gatos. From there, it’s a short out and back on the unpaved portion of the trail. The turn around takes place before the Dam (and the hills!). Runners then retrace their steps back to the finish line festivities on the Los Gatos High School track. I ran 13.1 miles and finished at 2:31:03. What a great day that was! WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!
