The La Jolla of East County...

Yes, I'm talking about Santee!  I think I read the "La Jolla" reference in a Chamber of Commerce article. 

Anyway, starting this Monday (3/21), I'll be leading a run, along with Team in Training teammate & mentor, Amanda at Santee Lakes. We'll meet at the ticket booth (pictured) at 5:15pm.  To avoid paying the $3.00 to park, you can park on Camino Del Lago (off Fanita Parkway) and walk across the street to the lake. You'll see a silver bridge leading down to the ticket booth (pictured ).  You don't need to be part of Team in Training to join our run. Everyone is welcome. There's a 2-mile and 3-mile loop, and it can be stretched out to 4 miles. If you've never been to Santee Lakes, it's a nice peaceful area. They have great fishing, playgrounds for the kids, places to picnic, a "Sprayground" (see picture), a campground, and coming next month, floating cabins that you can rent overnight (pictured).  Directions: take the Mast Boulevard exit off Highway 52. Go east on Mast, right on Fanita Parkway. Santee Lakes is on the right.
