So here's a little running update. It's HOT outside people!! It's officially scorching and ridunkulously hot. And guess what? I'm liking it. I hate cold and since it gets dark annoyingly early in the winter it's hard fitting in a run early OR late in the day. So I am NOT complaining.
I was able to fit in a couple of runs last week while we were at the beach (more on that later) and it was fun and hot and crowded! I didn't like that part as much. I'm used (spoiled) to OKI having not so many people but I guess that's the way it goes on a holiday weekend. I had to dodge way too many little kids, half-naked adults, and waves. By the time I got back to the house I was slightly dehydrated but it felt good when I was done.
In the past I would run barefooted. I learned the hard way that tender footsies will blister up fairly quickly on the rough sand and shell bits. Now I just put up with sand in my shoes. :)
I have no idea how far I ran those two days. I never measure it out. At home I just go by time but I didn't have a watch with me at the beach so I just ran until I thought I should probably turn around and head on back before I got carried away and overdid it.
I'm looking forward to this summer of running and hoping that the winter holds off as long as possible!
