i promised i'd run more, and i did! in fact, i had THE MOST INCREDIBLE RUN EVER. i went by myself and just went at my own pace, which was actually much faster than i realized it was possible to go on the beach! (also, the tide was out so there was nice flat hard sand right up against the water that was wonderful to run on.) jogged up and down the beach several times, and decided to make one of the legs of that journey a sort of tempo because i felt really good. the entire beach must be less than a mile long because i tempoed from end to end in 7:10...haha. but i just felt so good and fast and i was prancing in the waves and just enjoying myself so much! my ankles started to hurt (oh barefoot running, why do you have to be so painful?) so i had to quit...but if it hadn't been for that, I would likely have been out there all evening. it was one of those runs that you wish could go on forever. and ever and ever and ever....
