The turkey trot

I've been running on and off for the last several weeks and have managed to run a consistent seven miles. With my knees feeling a little sore but not worse for wear, I decided to run the Turkey Beach Trot on my friend's registration since she was out of town last week.

I am reminded once again why running on the beach is never good for the knees nor the IT band. And I'm completely out of shape. All the gasping and huffing I did while running forced me to slow down and then walk a bit to catch my breath. Still, I finished in a decent time of a little over 9min/mi pace. I'm going to say this now. This is the last time I will run on the beach but I know I'll run this race next year.
