Sunday's 8-mile Training Walk

Today was another beautiful day in San Francisco, and just the perfect weather for a 8-mile training walk, followed by good food and fun in the sun. :)


Sunday's 8-mile route

I accidentally forgot to start my Walkmeter app when we started, and only remembered to start it about a mile in.

We had a nice walk through the Presidio, which included a very picturesque walk through the San Francisco National Cemetery. The cemetery is going through some renovations right now, which was interesting to see. It's a beautiful location and very peaceful to walk through in the early morning.

We made our way out of the Presidio, and onto Sacramento Street. While we were there, we posed for a photo in front of the glassybaby store. :)


we love glassybaby!

We had a short break at the newly renovated Lafayette Park.


break time!

We continued our way across Van Ness to Polk Street, and walked down Polk Street to Bay. From there, we walked through the Marina, and through the always beautiful Palace of Fine Arts.

From the Palace of Fine Arts, we were back in the Presidio.

One of our new favorite traditions is to enjoy "Off the Grid" at the Presidio when we finish our walks on Sundays. Our cars are already parked across the street from the grassy area where dozens of food trucks come in every Sunday during the summer. We spread out some blankets, bring some lawn chairs, and have some tasty treats and cold drinks together. So much fun.


Off the Grid!
