Vineyards in Carneros 5K

Finally, my first run in a long time. This is a 5k/10k out-and-back (downhill, then uphill for the return) at the Artesa Vineyards & Winery in Napa Valley, CA. I finished 39th overall, at a leisurely 8:53/mile. Here is some proof that I actually made it to the finish line:

After that short run, we went to V. Sattui for some wine tasting and an outdoor lunch.

The 300

Another comic-book (well, graphic-novel) movie adaptation, The 300 features lots of stylized shots, and lots of nudity and dudity. For a while I considered being disappointed in the lack of war-scene variety, but then decided against it. There just aren’t too many different things to do when your army is tasked with simply holding a narrow mountain pass against invaders. So rather than lower my opinion, I simply decided to lower my expectations (after the fact).
