Early Start














It's been awhile. We've been trying to keep up but the summer schedule makes it a challenge sometimes, plus humid hot weather is not runner friendly.

Today we bite the bullet and head north alongside a spectacular sunrise. We've started early, we want to reach our goal before it gets too hot.

20.5 miles later we're there. Along the way, we get our feet soaked by the incoming tide, run bare foot awhile to let socks and shoes dry out some, discover the Audobon trail in quackerland, dart across an airfield, get lost in PI, lose the trail entirely after that and have to resort to roadside shoulder treking, and finally, finally reached the birthday boy, Jack.

Sore toes and a few chafs are our only casualties. We're hot, oh yeah very hot. Posted by Picasa
