    Cloaked in early morning fog, over 350 eager participants toed an imaginary starting line at Stearn’s Wharf in Santa Barbara. Some had energy gels stuffed inside their shorts. Many held water bottles. There were some with water packs strapped to their backs, and many a head was laden with a cap or visor.
