Team Asha Silicon Valley 09 Final Long Run together before marathon season

Finally I made it to the last long run of the season with all the Team Asha Silicon Valley 09 runners running together. Run was at Los Gatos Creek Trail, Cambell, CA.

I tried to capture various things take place during a typical long run like co-ords setting up the tables with food, warm up run, stretching, run start, water stops, hills and post run loading.
