In the morning, Santa Monica was graced with pleasant weather, the outdoor temperature sitting above 12°C, which was quite comfortable as North America gradually entered winter.
Against the golden sunrise, Link, wearing headphones, dressed in a red sports tee and shorts, with 20 pounds of weight strapped to his legs and waist, strode forward on the bay road. He started from the beach villa and ran to the guitar-shaped pier.
He watched a sunrise on the pier before running back from the jetty.
The more than ten-kilometer run left a patch of sweat on the back of his sports tee.
Beep beep!
As he was about to reach the villa area, a black Hummer SUV came toward him and stopped about ten meters from Link.
"Hey, Link."
The car window rolled down, revealing a familiar face behind sunglasses, with rugged features.
It seemed to be Arnold Schwarzenegger, the protagonist of the "Terminator" series and the current Governor of California, serving since '03 for his second term.
