| Faux Triathlon of Fun |

DATE: Your day starts at 10am, 12pm, or 2pm for a two hour bike tour of Mount Soledad with La Jolla Kayak. They actually transport you and the mountain bike (which you rent from them) to the top in a comfortable van, so this ride is not as intimidating as it sounds. It's truly for all ages and all athletic levels. Next, they strip you of your bike and suit you up for an hour and a half kayak tour. After all that exercise it is time to replenish those calories you just burned off, so head next door to the Cheese Shop. Round up your pre-organized picnic supplies, grab your to-go food, and walk northeast (only a couple of blocks) to the grassy Kellogg Park overlooking the beach. Enjoy a picnic in the sun. You deserve it!
BLOG: It's turf and surf without the calories! If you like to get your exercise while having fun then this is the play date for you. This triathlon involves biking in the mountains (Mount Soledad--okay, no worries... it's no Everest), Kayaking in the ocean, and running... a short distance to get your picnic supplies. One of our "Play-ers" has kayaked the cove on many occassions and recommends La Jolla Kayak, which he says has nice equipment, friendly staff and large lockers. It is in the heart of La Jolla Shores, a great destination neighborhood for those looking for an afternoon getaway! The Cheese Shop is right down the block from La Jolla Kayak and is famous for it's delicious order out sandwiches! So much selection and almost everyone stops by after a big kayaking excursion. The Cheese Shop is a great place to refuel after a couple of hours in the sun and on the water. Once you've packed your picnic head to... Kellogg Park is a great alternative to picnicing in the sand. It's a gorgeous green grass park right on the ocean. Nobody REALLY wants sand in their sand-wich.
