Boston Marathon 2025 with California Zephyr

-

I completed the Boston Marathon  this week. This was my first time running this legendary race, and also my very first trip to the East Coast. To make it even more memorable, I traveled from San Francisco to Boston by sleeper train , taking the scenic route on the California Zephyr and the Lake Shore Limited . Just sharing my experience for anyone—future Boston runners, past ones, sleeper train fans, or anyone who’s into both.

Mission Peak: 6 Loops in One Day

-
Image
I finished a Mission Peak workout — 6 loops in a single day — yesterday. There are already plenty of reviews and guides about hiking Mission Peak available online.  AllTrails  offers detailed route variations, elevation data, and up-to-date user feedback.  wheresjanice  shares familiar tips and impressions, while  Carrie Green Zinn  provides practical insights from a local’s perspective.  Mohan Parthasarathy  also shares a raw and honest review of the trail. Huge thanks to all of you! Still, the reason I’m writing this is that doing 6 loops in a day might not be common. Even more, I did 5 loops last weekend, and the same 5 loops the weekend before. Basically, I’ve done 16 loops across 3 separate days over the past 3 weeks. So I’m putting some notes and a log here. I hope it helps someone, maybe another ultra runner like me, or even  future me , if I ever decide to do it again.
