Happy Fathers Day Kings👑

01/27/2026

If you live on the 15 corridor, you know it’s almost impossible to find a flat route to run.

Sure, hills are amazing but when you have to run them every day it takes a toll!

And trying to find a track that’s open to the public is damn near impossible.

Well fear not my fellow runners, Cal State San Marcos’ track is open for public use.

If you decide to throw on your Hokas and do some laps make sure you follow their guidelines so this gem stays open to us all:

▪️Use common sense
▪️Like the road, pass on the left
▪️Go with the natural flow (counter-clockwise)
▪️Inner lanes are for sprints while the outer lane is for jogging/walking
▪️Sports teams take priority and be on the lookout when you’re running (especially when lacrosse is there)

Hope to see you out there!

Prices still feel crazy. I get it.

But here’s what I’m seeing:

→ Rates are trending down
→ Inventory’s still creeping up
→ Some neighborhoods are buyer’s markets

It’s not 2020 again but it’s not as impossible as it seems either.

I’m tracking where the best deals are.

Tomorrow, I’m breaking it all down for 1,000+ people and sharing exactly where the 10 buyers’ markets are in San Diego (first comment)
