Shore Break 5k in Avon

The Shore Break 5k on Memorial day was so much fun! I was even able to do it with my best friend! 
Here is my time! I came in 9th in my category (female 25-29) out of 26! Yay! 


 The course was a little crazy. Cross Hwy 12 (the only hwy on the island), over very skinny board walks and bridges, down the sand road, up a beach access, down a beach access, a 2 foot drop (the sand did not meet the last step of the beach access), soft sand along the dune line, and then along the water line.  When we got to the beach access they had a shoe pick up. That was so neat. I never wear my shoes when I run on the beach and we had planed on caring them. It was high tied that morning and there was not a lot of beach to run on in most places! 







Drinking and running is not all that easy! You should really slow down. I usually do not take water durning a 3 mile run but I it was so hot and there was not one breeze! 




Me and Casey at the finish! We made it! Now we are on our way to the Gingerbread House for a latte!
