tried running on the treadmill in the am....talk about drudgery! 2 miles was enough.
In the pm, I was inspired to see all the other runners out on the street, so I ran from our hotel along the main street to where it dead ended & back. On the run out, I was pleased to see that the wind had finally died down and wasn't roaring like it had been all day. Then I turned around and realized it was still roaring, it was just at my back for the last 2.8 miles. Oh dear...the run home was a little more work than the run out. I got to enjoy the sunset when I was finishing up my last mile and walking back to the hotel.
Wrightsville beach is beautiful. A small island off the NC coast near Wilmington. It is the beach where the book Dear John takes place. I didn't know this until I sat down to read the book while I was there. I bought it on a whim before we drove out there. A little ironic that the book I picked to read on vacation was about a couple who were at the same beach. Just made the book all the better to read.
On a personal note...teenagers drive me insane! |
