Race Report – Big Sur International Marathon

Just south of the Santa Cruz Boardwalk The Big Sur Marathon was so fun!  It was a huge bummer to find out several months ago that the course would change, and that we would not be able to run over the hallmarks of the course: over Hurricane Point and over Bixby Bridge.  However, doo-doo happens and I’ve...
