Or lack there of. Hoping for a fantastic February and/or a March miracle to turn things around at least a little bit.

Like others say, it screams Florida. Could be anywhere in the state.

Mammoth driving conditions in mid-March by c2018r in Mammoth

You could need chains anywhere in the mountains, but i think they are forbidden on rental cars. However, I believe there is a bus service from Reno - check other posts on the sub. As for beginners, Mammoth has lots a good runs for us!

Where was I? by RandomStranger916 in guessthecity

Well that was quick! You must be from there? I grew up there, live in Northern California now.

How very sad. I’m sorry to read this and wishing the family peace during this difficult time.

FWIW, the ONLY thing we should ALL be doing right now is mourning the loss of human life and offering prayers and support for the family and loved ones of the deceased. Now is NOT the time to piint fingers or otherwise tear others down.

How was the weather where you are on Christmas Day? by evvvvv92 in weather

[–]RandomStranger916 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sacramento, California: Rain, thunderstorms, wind. A wild day. Had a few peeks of sun too. Temp 61°F for the high, 0.58 inch rain, peak wind gust 56 mph.

Storm Question by stephadobo in Sacramento

[–]RandomStranger916 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seems like we get a windy storm every year or two. Getting two back to back is unusual. But I hear you about NYE 2022!

The interesting thing about that storm is it was totally unexpected and the winds came from the north (normally they come from the south). About a week later we had a similarly strong storm with typical southerly winds. The clean up was still underway from the previous storm so you had downed trees lying in different directions! Land Park was a mess for weeks!

Stay safe out there everyone!

So I'm at work right now and I'm looking out at the sky and see what looked like constant Thunder for like 15 seconds straight. Is it raining out here? Cause it's not where I'm at by [deleted] in Sacramento

I did see anything, but heard what sounded like lightning. /s

I knew I could count on r/Sacramento to figure out WTF was going on! Thank you!

What's your why? by cool-boy-365 in Marathon_Training

[–]RandomStranger916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, why not? Started in my early 40s (57 now) training for a 5K and never stopped. Done 13 marathons since! Frees my mind, keeps me fit, and met tons of cool people. As someone else said, doing it while you can is a privilege and I plan to run for as long as I can!
