Runnin'

OK, forget what I said last time about switching from running to swimming. I've thought of a new long-term goal: to run Bogue Bank on the beach from inlet to inlet, which would be over 24 miles. I'm going to have to work up to this! I think it can be done, even though running on sand definitely seems to be more work than running on pavement. I've even started to think of some of the details, like that I should run from the southwest end of the island to the northeast so I'm running with prevailing winds. It'll probably take me 5 hours, so it's not something I can do at low tide, though I can avoid a high tide, and certainly a spring high tide, so I'll have room to run on compacted damp sand without getting my shoes wet.
