Located in Jardins, Obá is a delightful respite from the usual Brazilian fare of meat with rice and beans. Its cuisine is a fusion of several countries and cultures including Mexican, Thai, and Brazilian. The walls are decorated with Mexican folk art and large travel photos that are changed every so often. It's the perfect place for a date or a gathering of friends.

I was a little disappointed at the lack of women in the race and I'm hoping to encourage more to join in next year. The course gives you a nice taste of the city, starting and ending right outside Ibirapuera park at the Obelisk and taking you ...
