December's 5 k of the month was the New Balance Girls on the Run 5k!
Girls on the Run is a really cool organization, that I was really excited to get involved with. Girls from all around San Diego between 3rd and 8th grade meet twice a week to learn about physical activity, nutrition, self respect and empowerment, and at the very end of each session they hold a 5k for everyone to run!
I had a really great time at this 5k. It was held at beautiful De Anza Cove in Mission Beach. Nothing like starting your morning with a nice jog around the water. I was really excited because my neighbor Abby from Solana Beach ran the 5k with her mom. She was so cute and did a really good job. There was definitely a lot of Justin Bieber and celebrating at the finish line.

De Anza Cove is the prefect place to go for a run or ride a bike, with great scenery and flat paths.
