The glorious weekend began at 7:30am with my debut in the Manhattan Beach 10k (that Jeff and I finished in 53 minutes). Seeing as this was my first “long distance” race, I was damn proud of myself, so we rewarded ourselves with pitchers and mimosas...Who said 8:45am was too early for a cocktail…NOT Manhattan Beach, seeing as the entire race had the same idea, and filed into Shellback, and every other place open downtown for breakfast and a drink.
The day really kicked into high gear around 1pm, when we headed to only spot to be on Hometown fair weekend, the beer garden. Everyone who lives in Manhattan Beach is there, and everyone who grew up in MB comes back into town.
Hometown fair weekend was another successful reunion…and it’s a true gift to be raised in a town with the pride and community that the Mb locals have.
