From the start, the point-to-point race course follows paved city streets from Del Mar to La Jolla, taking runners first on a counter-clockwise circle around Jimmy Durante Boulevard and Viva de la Valle to Camino del Mar, passing by the Jimmy Scripps Bluff Preserve along the way. The course follows through the city of Del Mar for the next couple of miles, along Coast Boulevard, Ocean Avenue and Stratford Court before rejoining Camino del Mar and heading closer to the coast. The race's next few miles, as the course follows along North Torrey Pines Road and heads into the Torrey Pines State Reserve, are some of the most scenic of any road race in America. Runners will pass by gorgeous, steep and rocky bluffs that peer over into the waves of the Pacific Ocean crashing below, as the sails of hang gliders and ultralite flyers pass through the sky in the distance. The course takes runners on a long straightaway through the park and past the famed golf course, and rejoins North Torrey Pines Road as it exits the park.

Check out our list of 1/2 marathon races below, as well as articles on training for and choosing half marathon races, our growing list of reviews of selected events, and resources and information on running and training groups around the U.S. Up to 6,500 runners will compete in the La Jolla Half Marathon.

The course takes runners on scenic Coast Hwy 101 to beautiful Torrey Pines State Reserve; and from there to N. Torrey Pine Roads, La Jolla Shores Drive, and Coast Blvd. The Half Marathon is both picturesque and rigorous, with a number of climbs, including the 420 foot summit at the state reserve. Runners should use extreme caution in these areas. Significant efforts have been made to reduce any danger to an absolute minimum, however, since the course runs along many streets which carry normal traffic, runners must take more than casual precautions to ensure their safety. If you become sick or injured, stay along the course, a sag wagon will follow the last runner. Tags: la jolla half marathon 2010 |
Sleepy Hollow Again in Business Posted: 25 Apr 2010 03:10 PM PDT
The films of Tim Burton shine through the muck like a jack-o-lantern on a foggy October night. After such successes as The Nightmare Before Christmas and Edward Scissorhands, it should come as no surprise that Sleepy Hollow is a dazzling film, a delicious reworking of Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Dark and moody, the film is a thrilling ride back to the turn of the 19th century. Johnny Depp stars as Ichabod Crane, a seemingly hapless constable from New York City who is sent to the small town of Sleepy Hollow to solve the mystery of the decapitations that are plaguing the town. Crane is a bumbling sort, with a tremendous faith in science over mysticism, and he comes up against town secrets, bewitching women, and a number of bodies missing heads. Christina Ricci, as beautiful as ever, is Katrina Van Tassel, the offbeat love interest who alternately charms and frightens Crane. The film, while occasionally gory (as one should expect from a movie about a headless horseman), is not terribly frightening, although it is suspenseful. Both Depp and Ricci are convincing, and the art direction and production values give the village its harsh feel. Toward the end, once the secrets are revealed, the film does slow down; however, this stylistic horror film provides many tricks and even more treats. Sleepy Hollow had been in development since 1994 and was originally intended to be directed by Kevin Yagher. The film labored into development far enough for Burton, who had unsuccessfully worked on Superman Lives, to direct. The majority of the filming took place in England where the crew built an entire soundstage. Sleepy Hollow was released with box office success and critical acclaim, grossing roughly $206 million worldwide. Tags: casper, johnny depp, orlando bloom, secret window, the man in the iron mask |
Kristin Cavallari a little aggressive Posted: 25 Apr 2010 03:05 PM PDT
Though US Weekly claims the MTV star was "going around to everyone, asking them to score her some coke" during Super Bowl weekend, KC laughed at the rumors yesterday in L.A. saying they're false and she knows who started them. Kristin Elizabeth Cavallari (born January 5, 1987) is an American reality television personality and actress best known for her appearances in the MTV series Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and its spin-off, The Hills. But those close to the hard-partying Cavallari, 23, say that such antics have become more and more typical. "Her issues are becoming apparent to everyone," an insider reveals. "She's getting scary-thin and not showering regularly...She's clearly unhealthy." Her Hills friends Brody Jenner, Audrina Patridge, Lo Bosworth and Stephanie Pratt have all expressed serious concerns, but to no avail. "She doesn't think she has a problem," a source says. See how Kristin made a recent best-dressed list And Cavallari isn't just a wild girl on her days off: the erratic, gaunt star has become chronically tardy to Hills tapings -- when she shows up at all. At Laguna Beach High School, she feuded with Lauren Conrad, who went on to star on the MTV spin-off smash The Hills. Kristin Cavallari sort of fell off the planet after that, but with LC calling it quits after five seasons, KC is gonna take over! Which is awesome. We missed Kristin Cavallari. Suffice it to say, she is real cute, albeit a little aggressive and b|tch|, although that may just be part of the act. We gotta say, Nick Zano? You blew it man. Kristin also dated Brody Jenner a few years ago - he later dated none other than Lauren Conrad, who was Kristin's high school enemy. Dude gets around.

Big Sur Marathon Runs and marathons Posted: 25 Apr 2010 02:57 PM PDT
Runs and marathons have been one of those things tat really exist to promote not only a healthy lifestyle but a responsible living and balanced-life as well. There will be more live streaming feeds though to satisfy each and everyone's lifestyle. You can download from links in the internet about more free live streaming. Southbound traffic along Highway 1 in Big Sur will be restricted south of the Carmel Highlands starting at 4 a.m., and northbound traffic will be closed from Big Sur at 6:15 a.m. Highway 1 southbound to Rio Road will be closed at Carmel Valley Road at 6:15 a.m. All roads will reopen at 1 p.m. For those on the Peninsula needing to head south, caravans will leave from the Crossroads Shopping Village at 8:45 a.m. and at 11 a.m. For Big Sur residents and travelers from the south, caravans will leave from Big Sur at 7:20 a.m., from Pt. Sur at 9:50 a.m. and from Palo Colorado at 11:55 a.m. The Big Sur International Marathon, however, is not just about the 26.2-mile race. Additional events include a marathon relay and varying distances of 21, 10.6 and 9 miles, plus a 5K. A kids 3K race, held Saturday on the Monterey Peninsula, and a two-day Health & Fitness Expo with running related vendors and race clinics precede the race on Friday and Saturday. Bakersfield Distance Projecters David Plyler and Lisa Sorensen ran the first leg for their relay teams and just kept going. David ran 3:34:05 and Lisa ran 6:03. They also both ran the Los Angeles marathon in March and Lisa ran the 26.6 mile BUMR in Feburary. For the last three, I have woken up at 4 am and hopped on the press truck to photograph what Runner's World calls the third best marathon in the country as thousands of people slam pavement along the beautiful ocean-scapes of Highway 1 in Big Sur. All in all, it is a fun assignment, even the part that includes riding in the bitter cold in the open bed of the press truck to the start line at 5:30am at 50 mph. Kind of cold.

Kentucky Derby 2010 Bettors change their priority Posted: 25 Apr 2010 02:44 PM PDT
Crown Picks: Owned by Michael Pegram, Karl Watson, Paul Weitman and Jonathan Pippin LOOKING AT LUCKY is being discussed in many sports handicappers circle as a 2010 Kentucky Derby picks favorite. According to the 2010 Kentucky Derby odds makers LOOKIN AT LUCKY is posted with 20/1 horse racing odds to win the 2010 Triple Crown. Like many sports, the days or weeks leading up to the event are almost as exciting as the actual event. The Kentucky Derby 2010 has plenty of big names if you are a horse fan. You can go ahead and place your wagers as soon as you are ready with Kentucky Derby Future Wager. This is definitely one of the quickest sporting events though. The Kentucky Derby 2010, much like many before it, covers a quarter of a mile or 2.012 KM at Churchill Downs. The actual race is known as the "The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports". These two minutes kick off the first round of the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing in the United States. With 155,000 fans expected to file into Churchill Downs each year, even folks who know nothing about horseracing turn into supposed experts. In "Horse Racing's Holy Grail: The Epic Quest for the Kentucky Derby", Steve Haskin examines what it takes to win the world's most famous horse race. He goes behind the scenes to discover the secrets of successful trainers, the common pitfalls that hinder so many others, and the enigmatic nature of the race itself. Haskin, an award-winning Turf writer, has been in the Derby trenches for more than three decades. His unique perspective shows why the Derby is the "most exciting two minutes in sports." Bettors will certainly have to change their priority after the sudden injury to Eskendereya. Next potential favorite for this year's Kentucky Derby will be Lookin At Lucky, who has trainer Bob Baffert & rider Garrett Gomez. Todd will be disappointed by the injury because he tried 24 times to win the derby but didn't manage to achieve it. Tags: kentucky derby, churchill downs |

NFL Mock Draft 2011 who’s coming out next year Posted: 25 Apr 2010 02:34 PM PDT
This is obviously way too early for a 2011 NFL Mock Draft. But it's always fun to speculate what could happen in the future. I based this order on my 2010 NFL Power Rankings, and took only my projected 2010 NFL Draft first-round picks into account when making these selections. Click here for my 2010 NFL Mock Draft. 1. Tampa Bay Bucs AJ Green, WR, Georgia Extremely talented receiver that we feel is the top of the outstanding WR Class in this 2011 NFL Mock Draft. Josh Freeman will adore him. 2. St. Louis Rams Julio Jones, WR, Alabama After addressing the QB position in 2010, the Rams will need another threat to pair with Donnie Avery. Julio Jones, of the freak WR build, is the man to provide it. 3. San Francisco 49ers Robert Quinn, DE, North Carolina Bolstering an improving defense upfront would go a long way to helping out the young DB's. Some 2011 NFL Mock Drafts have Quinn in the top 5, but we think that he still has a bit to prove. 4. Carolina Panthers Clint Boling, OT, Georgia Quick footed left-tackle that should start right away. Very technically sound Bulldog prospect. 5. Cleveland Browns Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama I think that we are all well aware of the Heisman Trophy winner's resume. If the Browns need a RB, Ingram might be the man here. 6. Buffalo Bills Ryan Mallett, QB, Arkansas The Bills QB situation is a mess, to which Mallett would finally bring some closure. Hopefully they addressed the O-line in the 2010 Draft. Come on, guys, it's never too early to start mocking. (Obviously, you can tell I'm a Lions fan.) I always enjoy watching Mel Kiper and Todd McShay duke it out on Sportscenter every morning just talking about the draft. I decided to make their jobs a little easier and throw out my mock for 2011. Yes, I said it: a mock draft for 2011 already, even before the 2010 Draft. With the junior declaration day long gone, we can now focus on who's coming out next year and where they will go. I'm only going to do the top 10, though, so I'm sorry to all the fans of teams that can win more than seven games. In this mock draft, I have come up with potential picks for next years NFL Draft. I have used this year's draft order and factored in the trades the draft pick trades that will effect teams next year. Tags: 2011 nfl mock draft |

Google Doodles The New Sensation Posted: 25 Apr 2010 12:35 PM PDT
We like the interest of the internet users nowadays is the logo-changing activity of the largest search engine in the world. From 'Topeka' last April Fools day to the recent Hubble Space Telescope yesterday, Google is obviously celebrating the US and world holidays extra special by changing it's logo. Do you remember the first (I'm not sure if it's really the first) 'moving' Google doodle? Well, it happened January 4th of this year. Google, together with billions of Google users celebrated the birthday of the father of Gravity, Sir Isaac Newton. The doodle was simple, Google in a tree, then an apple falls when you finally move the cursor, amazing! Google has had several logos since its renaming from "BackRub". The current official Google pop logo was designed by Ruth Kedar, and is a wordmark based on the Catull typeface. The company also includes various modifications and/or humorous features, such as cartoon modifications, of their logo for use on holidays, birthdays of famous people, and major events, such as the Olympics. These special logos, some designed by Dennis Hwang, have become known as Google Doodles. As of 21 March 2010, Google's own gallery features 770 logos. Lopez leads the team of Google Doodle designers, four artists whose work is seen not only on Google's American website, but on Google home pages for more than 100 countries around the world. Ryan Germick was creating the Doodle that appeared on Google's British website Friday - St. George's Day, honoring the dragon-slaying knight. "St. George's day is important," Germich said. "My father's name is George. So, you know, that's a little special personal interest to me." Jennifer Hom is working on a Doodle for Google's Czech website. "It's the birthday of Komensky; he was an educator in the Czech Republic," she said. Susie Sahim is creating a doodle for the Google home page in Spain for the birthday of a renowned naturalist. "His name is Felix Rodriguez de la Fuente," Sahim said. "So the sun is creating the O. And the two wolves together make the G. And his body much more vertical, making the L." That was 1998, when the two moguls were just starting Google. Since then, dozens of "doodles" have popped up on the home page to celebrate everything from Thanksgiving and Halloween to the birthdays of Charles Darwin and Andy Warhol, World Water Day, the launch of the Large Hadron Collider and the opening of the Olympic Games. Each doodle is an illustrated version of Google's everyday logo. It appears on the relevant day, then disappears.
