New Sights on the Run
April 11, 2009
This week Andrew and Brendon and I spent the week at the beach for spring break! We came with Angie and her girls and Benjamin. It was great. I got to run three days. The first two days it was cool, perfect weather for running, even needed a long sleeve shirt.
Angie’s condo is on the marina with a path and I ran around that as well as the neighborhood. I love running in new places, looking at new things. This is a huge complete with little bungalows, lots of boats, pools and condos. Even early in the morning there were people out walking their dogs. For the most part they were friendly, I waved to everyone. I like to wave to people but after awhile it gets distracting.
I am so grateful, I even got my 10 miles in, the last long run before the marathon. I did that two days ago and the weather was nice then, one of the cool days. I’m glad for the willingness to keep going, originally I was going to put it off until today. I prayed for willingness and it came.
Today was typical Florida weather, warm and muggy. I was dripping almost from the first moment I set out the door. Of course I also forgot my sweat cloth and sweat was dripping from my face into my eyes. I drenched my shirt also. Oh well, it felt good to get back and take a good shower.
It is so great to enjoy this time away from the daily tasks of life. I really needed it!
