But last week we were in Stone Harbor, NJ with extended family for our annual summer beach vacation and for me there is nothing boring about running on the beach. Sunday: Cried like a baby, because our beach vacation was over and no more beach running until next year. Saturday: 5 mile run, run at conversational pace. Same roads.
