San Francisco's Bridge to Bridge Run
Wednesday September 10, 2003
Last time I visited San Francisco, I rented a bicycle and rode from Fisherman's Wharf to the Golden Gate Bridge. I didn't even notice how much exercise I was getting going up and down those hills because of the amazing scenery. I'm not much of a runner, but even I could see trying the upcoming Bridge to Bridge Run. Or maybe it's just another excuse to visit San Francisco.
The new Argonaut Hotel, right there in the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park, is an official Run sponsor. They're offering a rate of $139 per night for the event, October 3 through 6.
